review 1: The selections in this book are like graphic short stories -- each one thoughtful, quirky, and self-contained. Set in Isreal, the vignettes capture a whimsical, absurd poignancy with stories of revenge, murder, and mistaken identities, but also of love, longing, and moments of grace. There's the woman who heals people through electric touch, the hotelier who dresses as Snow White, and the nun who serves as a nurse for a plastic surgeon. Each story surprises with the twists and turns of its own internal logic. If you want something delightful and out of the ordinary, read this.
review 2: Historias curtas que traen os aromas e os ruídos dunha Israel diversa, onde se mestura o amor, a familia, o misterio e a crítica social. É diferente, non só na calidade dos ... moredebuxos, nin na orixinalidade das historias; é diferente en tanto en canto logra esa difícil conexión coa lectora, volvéndoa nunha personaxe máis e non nunha simple espectadora. E o resquicio que deixa ao final da derradeira páxina. less
