Description

Every single story is tinged with sadness, perhaps a fair reflection of those raised in the perpetual war zone.

Omer is very insightful in his portrayal of the sad unrest between Israelis and Palestinians, in peaceful times as well as troubled, and across various decades. Adinah’s father explains why she cannot be friends with the girl: their families have been rivals since their ancestors were miniaturists in Spain. I imagined Aba on Purim day, on his back in the street like an insect, clutching his heart which had stopped beating, on his forehead the word MET. Apparently, it wasn't only possible, but people seemed to welcome this kind of storytelling which was approachable yet not condescending (learners aren't children after all, just adults with a smaller vocabulary).When I was really young, we had a carriage pulled by donkeys and Aba would let me feed them carrots out of the palm of my hand. In The Sand Collector, a Jewish schoolgirl falls for a Bedouin smuggler who collects sand and significant memories, in jars, labelling them with his neat Arabic script. Once Ima explained to the zoo-keepers and security guards that our father just died, we left the zoo and never came back.

Für diese Rückzahlung verwende ich dasselbe Zahlungsmittel, das Sie bei der ursprünglichen Transaktion eingesetzt haben, es sei denn, mit Ihnen wurde ausdrücklich etwas anderes vereinbart; in keinem Fall werden Ihnen wegen dieser Rückzahlung Entgelte berechnet. This was a series of short stories which I found very evocative of various trips I have been lucky to have to Israel. The Man Who Sold Air In The Holy Land is a collection of eleven short stories by Israeli-born author, Omer Friedlander. The fact that this piece of history has been maintained in the work of Arab scrap dealers is somewhat ironic.In The Man Who Sold Air In The Holy Land, estranged from his wife, jobless, Simcha holds onto those activities that entertain his young daughter on her weekly access visit, including their double-act of selling bottles of air to American tourists. What especially stood out is the fairytale-like ambience of every story, mixing old tales with a sprinkle of humour and wisdom.

Notwithstanding their great physical attributes, the melons were lousy being probably picked before ripe time. He secretly marvels at their foreign ways, until one day he find something that involves him more in their lives than he ever expected.

Alte Sachen is a collaboration between the video artist Itamar Inbar and the photographer Ayala Gazit. He had stolen a long piece of cloth from the abandoned house, a torn piece of a tattered curtain with a floral design and was using it as a superhero cape. He was awarded first place in The Baltimore Review Winter Contest and the Shmuel Traum Literary Translation Prize.Sind Sie Kaufmann im Sinne des Handelsgesetzbuches, juristische Person des öffentlichen Rechts oder öffentlich-rechtliches Sondervermögen, ist ausschließlicher Gerichtsstand für alle Streitigkeiten aus Vertragsverhältnissen zwischen mir und Ihnen der Geschäftssitz des Verkäufers. After having recently seen some photos of the outer shell and some impressive inside vertical views I am no more so sure that Havalimani, that being Antalya’s airport name, is a strong contender for an ugliness airport prize but I don’t have too much envy to retract and between us, it was crack full with a pedestrian, lower-middle-class crowd, Guys and Dolls, … I haven’t met any celebrity if you know what I mean. It was a playground of rusted dinosaurs, carcasses of cars spilling metallic guts, rusted spinal cords, dust-coated engine hearts.

In High Heels, the shoe seller’s son tells the story of the Polish ballerina’s legendary high heels to a couple he meets while night climbing: he is dazzled by them, naïve to their predatory nature. He wore a necklace with a heavy, polished stone at the end, which tugged his head to the floor giving him the appearance of a tiny, bowed monk.

There were no happy endings but there were a lot of fleshed-out, well considered plots that had me hooked like a baby fish on a rod.
