I can‘t seem to settle down into a comfortable read. I just bailed on two other books because they were not grabbing my attention the way I like in a current read. I hope this book will do it for me. Shulamit Lapid is a well known #Israeli author so my hopes are high for this novel.
SqueakyChu I‘m so excited! I just discovered that the author is the mother of Yair Lapid, current Minister of Foreign Affairs in #Israel. I like him so much! This is a good sign. 😃 (edited) 3y
SqueakyChu So I started this book and I‘m enjoying it. It‘s about a young Russian immigrant to Palestine near the end of the nineteenth century. I usually don‘t like historical fiction, but the story seems interesting enough. (edited) 3y
SqueakyChu The thing about this book is that I once lived in Israel, and reading names of familiar places makes me remember them with deep emotion. 3y
