#Hannukahchallenge 🕯️The stories are rather uneven but all make attempts to represent Israelis as very humane individuals, not some pieces of a monolithic nation providing news headlines.
The overall drawback for me is the writing style. It's not exactly pure realism because of the artistic freedom Friedlander uses, but it is not a mystical realism we're seeing in Edgar Keret's stories. It is more of some sort of an adolescent fantasy realism.
