[An] original and powerful writer…. His clear and honest writing blasts right through the clichés and the politically correct surface to touch the chaotic and ambiguous core of the Israeli identity.” —Etgar Keret “In a dazzling display of empathy, Gavron creates two equally compelling narrators, the bomber and his victim.
