pickZeruya Shalev writes so well about love, marriage and family. In this novel there‘s also pain. The narrator was injured in a terrorist attack on a bus in Jerusalem. Ten years later, the pain returns. So does her first love. An intense book I read for #FoodAndLit #Israel.

MySharonaK What an amazing book! The author herself was injured in a terror attack in Jerusalem (and chef Assaf Granit assisted her). Her books are a gift ❤️ 3y

BarbaraBB @MySharonaK You are right. I don‘t think she would be able to write about pain the way she does without having experienced it 💔 3y
TrishB What a mesmerising cover ❤️ 3y
MySharonaK @BarbaraBB Yes I agree with you💔 it‘s amazing how she‘s channeled it into such beauty. Have you read books by her cousin Meir Shalev? 3y
Anna40 I love this book. I adore this author!!! ❤ 3y
Butterfinger A great review. 3y
Texreader Excellent review 3y
BarbaraBB @MySharonaK I used to read a lot of Meir Shalev but it‘s a long time ago! 3y
BarbaraBB @Anna40 Me too. My favorite is one that doesn‘t seem to have been translated into English unfortunately. I must be wrong. I read it in Dutch, where it‘s title means ‘The Second Family‘ and it‘s about a female narrator trying to connect with the kids of her new lover. (edited) 3y
