Description
A harrowing and controversial novel about a woman's quest for revenge and Jewish identity. Elinor's comfortable life is upended when she discovers her estranged uncle is coming to Jerusalem, sparking a confrontation that will change everything. Elinor's past comes back to haunt her as she grapples with the dark events of her childhood, including the shocking truth about her uncle's book and its author. As Elinor builds up the courage to take action, the reader is left questioning the veracity of the memoir they're reading - is it possible that Elinor is manipulating them into forgiving a horrific crime? Gail Hareven's writing style raises important questions about mental state and the power of storytelling, making this a thought-provoking and unsettling read.
