The action of the novel by the classic of 20th-century Israeli literature Abraham B. Yehoshua, whom the New York Times called the Israeli Faulkner, covers only seven days before Easter. And at the same time, this novel, written on a Tolstoyan scale, tells a complex story, full of joy and pain, love and hatred, of a large and restless family, of all three generations. This is a polyphonic monument to Israeli society of the late seventies, but at the same time an existentialist treatise, a masterpiece of style, and a masterfully conceived, fascinating interweaving of stories, each of which is private, and all of them together are about a person in general, beyond the era and beyond the nationality. Like any great writer.
