Two stories of love and betrayal from Israel's foremost writer
These two novellas concern love. In 'Frenzy', Shaul is convinced that his wife is having an affair. He feverishly imagines her, in every painful detail, with her lover. Esther has never seen the human side of her aloof brother-in-law, but during a night-time journey Shaul unburdens himself, recreating an affair he has never witnessed. Is he mad? Or has he divined the truth? In 'Her Body Knows', Rotem has spent most of her life being angry with her mother, Nilli. Now Nilli is dying and Rotem, who has finally found happiness in London, must return to say goodbye. She arrives with a story about Nilli, full of accusations, empathy, love and forgiveness.

David Grossman is the author of seven novels (which include See Under:Love and most recently, Be My Knife and Someone to Run With), three books of journalism and numerous stories for children. He has won many prizes internationally and was made Chevalier de l'Ordre des Artes et des Lettres. David Grossman lives in Jerusalem.
