Shalev, an amazing storyteller, gives us a beautiful novel of life, love, and loss as Ruta's world becomes our own. An excellent choice for discussion groups and a delight to discover. [See Prepub Alert, 3/21/16.]
A shiny American-made vacuum cleaner weaves its way, Zelig-like, through Shalev's affectionate portrait of growing up on the moshav in 1920s Palestine...
This quick and enjoyable read is intended for a Jewish audience already familiar with the Bible, but anyone interested in biblical stories as literature will find Shalev's book both entertaining and enlightening. Recommended for a general audience, religious and nonreligious alike.
