Gavron, an Israeli writer, writes in a raw and engaging style as he explores the stress of life in Israel from multiple perspectives. The story is told by two different alternating narrator, which could make a story seem disjointed. However, in this book the tactic works beautifully. The two separate stories are woven together seamlessly as the relationship between the two characters is slowly uncovered. Part of the success of the book is the author's writing style, which is driven by strong characters with a lot going on internally. This personal exploration is what enables the two narrators to keep you engaged, with curiosity driving the reader to move forward and understand what happened to these two men. Because of this close relationship you build with the characters you care about what happens to each of them.
