A large dog is running through the streets of Jerusalem, and behind it is rushing sixteen-year-old Asaf, a shy and awkward teenager, whose summer vacation until that day was spoiled by a dreary job at the city hall. But after he was tasked with finding the owner of a lost dog, his life changed dramatically - a real adventure burst into it. In search of his owner, Dinka will lead him to a Greek monastery, where only one nun lives, who has not gone outside for fifty years; to an abandoned Arab village, which became the last refuge of unfortunate Russian street children; to an amazing lake in the desert...A strange girl with a shaved head and a voice of unearthly beauty wanders along the same Jerusalem streets. Tamar is a singer who dreamed of being on the stage of the best opera houses in the world, but now she sings on the streets and squares, among idle passers-by, shawarma dealers, drug dealers, pickpockets and police officers. Tamar is also searching, and her search is mortally dangerous... The meeting of Asaf and Tamar is predetermined by fate and a dog's sense of smell, but before they meet, they will experience many adventures and learn a lot about themselves and the strange world in which they live. David Grossman combined in his The book is a travel novel, a Middle Eastern fairy tale and a very realistic portrait of modern Israel. His Jerusalem is not a city from political news reports, but ancient streets and bustling squares that are so good to run through if you have a goal.
