If you are considering a new life in Israel then Toto, I Don't Think We Are in Golders Green Anymore is essential reading. This is an often humorous account about becoming a Jew and moving to Israel as a new immigrant. It is also the story of a relationship that didn't quite work out and about being gay in Israel. This book will give you a feeling for what it is really like to live in Israel; experience the sights, smells, tastes, the blood-vessel-popping frustration and the exhilaration of Aliyah. Meet a host of lovable characters such as cockroach-chomping kittens, snarling nudists, and ferocious rubber-stamp-wielding clerks with pig-stunning BO. The book explores Israeli norms and attitudes and describes places, politics and everyday experiences through English eyes.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Andrew Reid was born in County Antrim, Northern Ireland in 1967. He has written poems and music since he was 12, when his parents bought him Pink Floyd's album The Wall for his birthday. The album changed everything for Andy. The darkness, moodiness was sheer brilliance - almost instilling fear into him. He was already writing short poems, but this new music and lyrics inspired him to be more adventurous with his writing. He no longer had to write for the 'norm'. Andy has now finally turned the pen to his first novel. His love of music is a strong influence in this novel as he links tracks poignantly with the deaths of his fictional, and sometimes real characters. It took three years to finally complete the book, with life priorities often taking over. As this book is published, Andrew is excited to be starting his next project and hopes you will follow his work.
