"Tel Aviv is a place of contradiction, an urban dream of the Middle
East where sleek European cafes sit beneath stone minarets; where
Berlin-style hipsters sip coffee next to black-hatted rabbis; where
charity, sex, conflict and controversy overflow the streets. In Tel
Aviv Stories, Israel's "White City" is revealed. Through a tale of
city madness in Spinoza Street, and the beggar s comedy, On
Allenby; telling the secrets of an "urban witch" in White Hair
Woman and showing the still-life of a young immigrant family in
Mother, Father, Child; in the tragedy of twinhood in the novella
Rivkah & Rebecca, and by tracing the footsteps of a lost life
in Little Old Lady With the Flowers; and in a personal story of
exile in Night of Grief, author Ashley Rindsberg gives outsiders
entree into a strange world of Russian street virtuosos, flower
selling whores, polyglot bums and the "Backwards Rabbi," as well as
the middle-class immigrants and children of wealth who people
Israel s tangled urban heart."
