Three Israeli women, their lives altered by immigration to the United States, seek to overcome crises. Ilana is a veteran Hebrew instructor at a Midwestern college who has built her life around her career. When a young Hebrew literature professor joins the faculty, she finds his post-Zionist politics pose a threat to her life's work. Miriam, whose son left Israel to make his fortune in Silicon Valley, pays an unwanted visit to meet her new grandson and discovers cracks in the family's perfect façade. Efrat, another Israeli in California, is determined to help her daughter navigate the challenges of middle school and crosses forbidden lines when she follows her into the minefield of social media. In these three stirring novellas--comedies of manners with an ambitious blend of irony and sensitivity--celebrated Israeli author Maya Arad probes the demise of idealism and the generation gap that her heroines must confront.

Product description

About the Author

Maya Arad is the author of eleven books of Hebrew fiction, as well as studies in literary criticism and linguistics. Born in Israel in 1971, she received a PhD in linguistics from University College London and for the past twenty years has lived in California where she is currently writer in residence at Stanford University's Taube Center for Jewish Studies.

Jessica Cohen translates contemporary Israeli prose and commercial material from and into Hebrew. Her published translations include critically-acclaimed works by David Grossman, Yael Hedaya, Ronit Matalon, Amir Gutfreund and Tom Segev. Her translations have appeared in Words Without Borders, Two Lines, and Zeek. Born in England, raised in Israel, she has lived in the United States since 1997.

Robin Siegerman trained as an actor in NYC and Toronto, Canada. She trained as an audiobook narrator with coaches Sean Pratt, Joel Froomkin, and Dawn Harvey. In 2018 she was nominated for Best International Voiceover at the One Voice Awards in London, England, for the documentary voice-over in HarrysStory.ca. In 2019 she won Best Corporate Training Voice Over Artist by CV Magazine. In 2021 she won an Earphones Award from AudioFile magazine for A Son at the Front, by Edith Wharton, and was again nominated for a One Voice Award for the audiobook Rosedale in Love, by Lev Raphael, a retelling of Edith Wharton's The House of Mirth. Robin grew up in Montreal speaking English and French, so she developed an ear for language and accents at an early age. She enjoys bringing this to her audiobook narration and enhancing the stories. With an additional background as an internationally award-winning interior designer, author of Renovation Bootcamp: Kitchen, and conference speaker, she loves to "make movies for the ears." In her spare time, you can find her surrounded by a bevvy of senior rescue dogs, singing with her a capella ensemble in Toronto, or playing board games with friends and family.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book of short stories by an important Israel writer
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 22, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    This is the first book of fiction by Maya Arad, one of the leading Israeli writers of her generation, to be translated into English and will be followed by a second next year. These are interesting stories about the cultural gap between America and Israel and the title story is very topical given the circumstances in the Middle East over the last year. She writes clearly and often movingly.

    Got this for a book club. Turns out to be three novellas abut Israeli women who immigrate to the U.S. It is timely (even though written some years ago and only recently translated into English), Very fine explanations of the pressures Jewish women are facing in the U.S. today.
