Ukrainian bride falls in love in Jerusalem .. but not
with her Israeli groom; love is not enough to breach the
political void between an Israeli soldier and her American
boyfriend; an apartment owner exacts a fitting revenge
on the woman who cheated her out of the mountain view
she loves; pretense is the name of the game for a divorced
mom in Jerusalem; a man's passion for jazz transcends
all trials and adversities; a rabbi gives his blessing to a
married man's affair, but tragically his wife has the last
word; a doctor's romantic choices test his mother's liberal
Zionism; a daughter lovingly heeds her mother's plea to
end her misery; a young woman insists on naming her son
after her childhood sweetheart - an Arab boy named Aziz;
a U.S. immigrant has her first same-sex encounter in the
health club shower…..
These are just some of the themes in this exciting short-
fiction anthology featuring 65 stories written in English
and set in Israel.
Quirky, poignant, humorous or heartbreaking, the stories,
written by over 45 authors, mostly native English-speaking
Israel residents and expatriates from the UK, USA,
Canada, South Africa, India, etc., provide a kaleidoscope
of contemporary Israeli society - not the whole story but
the Anglo narrative in this dynamic, multi-cultural State
now in its sixth decade.
