When Israel reached 60 years of independence, the UJIA’s Jewish Life Education Centre published this collection of three short stories and three excerpts to celebrate Israel’s achievement.
The varied stories raise questions of what we perceive Israel to be; challenge the role Israel plays in the identity of its citizens and in our identities; and explore the experiences of, and relationships between, the many different people and characters that form part of Israeli society.
Read them for your own enjoyment of Israeli literature as one example of the talent and achievement Israel has to celebrate.
In this slightly surreal short story, Keret expresses the life of a young misfit, and with comic sadness questions the way we escape when we don't fit in.
