Lunch & Lit - Love life

Dr. Joseph Lowin

Course Description

This course examines a new trend in recent Israeli fiction. The four Israeli novels in this series were recently published in English translation. They have common the themes of romance and its discontents, the devastations wrought on an aging population, and the continuation of the centrality of the Jewish textual tradition in Israeli writing. How these themes are woven together, by the individual novelists and by the four novelists collectively, constitutes the subject of this course.
