Jerusalem Plays Hide and Seek, Ariella Deem, translated from Hebrew by Nelly Segal, 1976, Israel, NOVEL

"...One warm autumn day in Boston, Ariella Deem happens upon a metal box filled with antique glass slides...With fluid, lyrical prose, Ariella Deem interweaves first- and third-person narrative, biblical references, Hebrew poetry, and accounts of current events amid the strands of Yosef Levi's tragic life to reveal the fragile relationships among characters, time, and the author herself."
