Description
A love story spanning seven decades, Fanny and Gabriel's tale is one of passion and rage, desire and contempt, set against the backdrop of major historical events. Theirs was a romance born of circumstance, arranged by a professional matchmaker, but it was not long before fate intervened, reuniting them in a conflict that would test their love to its limits. The story of Fanny and Gabriel is also one of the era's biggest Jewish dilemma: the choice between life in America and a new Jewish state in Palestine. As Nava Semel weaves together the fragments of their extraordinary life, it becomes clear that their love was both a torment and an anchor, never truly extinguished. First published in Israel in 2017, Fanny and Gabriel has been widely praised for its unique literary talent and poignant portrayal of one family's story.
