And This Is the Light

A lyrical, coming-of-age story by one of Israel's most important writers, beautifully translated into English to retain the clarity and elegance of the original. It is the summer of 1931 and twenty-year-old Nora Krieger returns to her small-town home in Lithuania from university in Berlin ready to present a new, mature self. Instead her time at home becomes a period of unrequited love, difficult memories and introspection.
