A bedraggled detective is dispatched to an IDF base where a man was burned alive while making a training film. An art student in Paris breaks into a morgue to recreate Mantegna’s Lamentation of Christ. A scripture (with commentary!) tells of a mythical nation uniting to construct a monument to their deity, then falling into chaos when no one can agree on its precise form or dimensions. Hailed from publication as one of the finest novels ever written in Hebrew, A Room is in the league of Gravity’s Rainbow or The Recognitions: a monumental, subversive classic of twentieth-century literature. - Häftad, Engelska, 2017

The hero of Castel-Bloom’s latest novel—an exploration of Jewish identity and family history—can trace her roots back on her father’s side to the expulsion of the Jews of Spain in 1492, when seven brothers of the Kastil family landed on the Gaza coast after a long series of trials and tribulations. Her mother claims their family goes back even further, 3,000 years, to the only clan that Jewish history has ignored: the one that said `No’ to Moses and stayed behind in Egypt. Mixing historical and biographical facts, made-up legends plus other fictions and exaggerations, Castel-Bloom has written an unconventional saga of her family, the Kastils: family meals and get-togethers, deaths and funerals, sayings and stories, and all those things that are not to be mentioned.
