Description
When her archeologist father died, Loya Kaplan cut all ties and left Israel (apparently) for good. Twenty-five years later, sleepwalking through life, Loya is summoned back to Israel following the death of Davidi, her father's friend (or rival, or lover, or nemesis). Returning to a homeland become alien, and to a house filled with relics of herself, her family, and even ancient history, Loya's story tears istelf apart: the life she once led in an improvised neighborhood, filled with concentration-camp refugees and secrets, must collide with the antiseptic, well-fed present day.
