A stellar novel rendered into a darkly comic, unforgettable narrative by Booker International Prize winning translator Jessica Cohen. An Israeli professor travels to a fictitious West African nation to trace a slave-trading ancestor, only to be imprisoned under a new law barring successive generations from profiting off the proceeds of slavery. But before departing from Tel Aviv, the protagonist falls in love with Lucile, a mysterious African migrant worker who cleans his house. Entertaining and thought-provoking, this satire of contemporary attitudes toward racism and the legacy of colonialism examines economic inequality and the global refugee crisis, as well as the memory of transatlantic chattel slavery and the Holocaust. Is the professor's passion for Africa merely a fashionable pose and the book he's secretly writing about his experience there nothing but a modern version of the slave trade?Agur Schiff, born in 1955 in Tel Aviv, is a graduate of Saint Martin's School of Art in London and the Rijks Art Academy in Amsterdam. He has worked as a filmmaker, started writing fiction in the early 1990s, and has published two short story collections and six novels. Schiff, professor emeritus at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem, has been awarded the Israeli Prime Minister's Prize.Jessica Cohen shared the 2017 Man Booker International Prize with author David Grossman for her translation of A Horse Walks into a Bar. She has translated works by Amos Oz, Etgar Keret, Dorit Rabinyan, Ronit Matalon, Nir Baram, and others.Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - ​https://wellingtonsquarebooks.indiecommerce.com/book/9781954404168

As the Jewish year 5782 comes to a close, we devote the first half of this week's Haaretz Weekly to discussing the biggest stories of the outgoing year – from Israel's short-lived “government of change” to the Jewish aspects of the war in Ukraine. Haaretz Deputy Editor Noa Landau joins host Amir Tibon in the studio, and they also discuss the happy dictators of the Middle East and whether next year will bring with it another Israeli election.  Later on the show, author Nir Baram, whose novel “World Shadow” was recently published in English, joins the podcast to discuss the fate of the Israeli left, the one-state reality on the ground in Israel-Palestine, and the thought-provoking idea of a billion-man strike, which is at the heart of his book. Listen to the full conversation with Nir starting at time code 17:45. Next week, due to Rosh Hashanah, we'll be taking a short holiday break. Shanah Tova to our listeners, we'll meet again in early October. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I det här avsnittet tar Paula eken över axeln och med Madame Eli i hjärtat beger hon sig till Tel Aviv och till Jerusalem för att bjuda ner gäster till ekens rötter och lyssna på röster om inre frid i våldets värld. Författaren Nir Baram gästar trädkronan och berättar om sin bok A land without borders som beskriver hur han begav sig till östra Jerusalem och till Västbanken för att lyssna på röster från världar han tidigare inte besökt. Det här är ett avsnitt om kreativitetens kraft, den som finns oavsett omständigheter och som kan visa sig genom allt från gatukonst till dans till sång till skrivande.

Den israelske forfatteren Nir Baram kombinerer brennhet politisk tematikk med fengslende litteratur, og er aktuell med boka "Verdens skygge". Hør ham i samtale med journalist og forfatter, Åshild Eidem. "Verdens skygge" belyser forholdet mellom individ og system gjennom tre historielinjer: Fra innsiden av et gigantisk amerikansk konsulentselskap; fra ståstedet til en ambisiøs forretningsmann; fra de unge, arbeidsledige kunstnerne fra London, som igangsetter en verdensomspennende aksjon mot kapitalismen. Historien strekker seg fra 1980-tallet og til vår tid, og diskuterer den indre konflikten mennesker bærer på, i en verden der man stadig dras mellom idealisme og en uutgrunnelig fascinasjon for penger og makt.
