Judiths Liebe
Summary
Wer von den drei Männern, die seine Mutter Judith umworben haben, sein Vater ist, weiß der kleine Sejde nicht. Ist es der Bauer Mosche, der Viehhändler Globermann oder der Vogelzüchter Scheinfeld? Jeder der drei möglichen Väter kümmert sich anders um den Waisenjungen: Der eine bietet ein Heim, der andere Geld, der dritte lädt zum Festessen ein.

My Wild Garden
Summary
On the perimeter of Israel's Jezreel Valley, with the Carmel mountains rising up in the west, Meir Shalev has a beloved garden, "neither neatly organized nor well kept", as he cheerfully explains. Often covered in mud and scrapes, Shalev cultivates both nomadic plants and "house dwellers", using his own quirky techniques. He extolls the virtues of the lemon tree, rescues a precious variety of purple snapdragon from the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway, and does battle with a saboteur mole rat. He even gives us his superior private recipe for curing olives. Informed by Shalev's literary sensibility, his sometime riotous humor, and his deep curiosity about the land, My Wild Garden abounds with appreciation for the joy of living, quite literally, on Earth. Our borrowed time on any particular patch of it is enhanced, the author reminds us, by our honest, respectful dealings with all manner of beings who inhabit it with us. Jacket art by Refaella Shir
