Fiction Family Life
Acclaimed author Noa Weber has a successful "feminist" life:
a strong career, a wonderful daughter she raised alone, and
she is a recognized and respected cultural figure. Yet her
interior life is bound by her obsessive love for one
man-Alek, a Russian migr and the father of her child, who
has drifted in and out of her life. Trying to understand-as well as free herself from-this
lifelong obsession, Noa turns her pen upon herself, and with
relentless honesty dissects her life. Against the evocative
setting of turbulent, modern-day Israel, this examination
becomes a quest to transform irrational desire into a
greater, transcendent understanding of love. The Confessions of Noa Weber introduces a startlingly
talented writer in a rich tale that illuminates the desires,
yearnings, and complexities of life in Israel.
