Reviews

[Karli Sherwinter · Rating 5 out of 5]

Heartfelt short stories that highlight the parent-child relationship and all of its intricacies. The author clearly enjoyed exploring the theme of the parents need to let go and how different outcomes might be even better than the ones we thought we wanted.

un bel libro, inaspettato, dunque ancora migliore. mi e' piaciuto tanto che l'ho divorato in pochissimo tempo. tre donne portano turbamenti o novita' nelle vite delle diverse famiglie coinvolte. tre novelle, ambientate in israele, che illustrano insieme la realta' contemporanea del paese, e allo stesso tempo indagano nell'intimo dei personaggi senza mai strafare o cedere alla retorica. lo stile e' secco e asciutto, immagino sia proprio questo che mi e' piaciuto.
