Jewish Book & Arts Fair: Meir Shalev

Two She Bears is a story of village love and vengeance in the early days of British Palestine that is still being played out two generations later. Rich with grit, humor and the near magical evocation of Israeli rural life, Meir Shalev, one of Israel’s most celebrated authors, weaves a tale of friendship between men, of love and betrayal, and carries us from British Palestine to present day Israel where forgiveness, atonement and understanding can finally happen. Shalev joins a rare group of authors making a third appearance at this Book Fair.
