“Book Descriptions: For fans of Etgar Keret, a debut collection that fuses the humor of everyday life in Israel with technology's challenges and the latest discoveries about the human brain.
At once compassionate, philosophical, and humorous, Jerusalem Beach explores contemporary life in all its facets. Following an Israeli geriatric army platoon, the dire consequences of ambition at a scheming tech start-up that tries to share human memories, or an elderly couple searching for a beach that doesn't exist, Iddo Gefen leads us into a world that's a step from the familiar. Each story is a foray into the human condition in all its contradictions. Whether ruminating on the stakes of familial love or pitching the reader headlong into the absurdity of success and failure, Jerusalem Beach leaves the reader intrigued throughout.
Optioned for rights by Ryan Gosling, Warner Bros, and Greg Berlanti, and others to be announced soon and originally published in Israel to great acclaim, this debut collection gives a new and unique human perspective about the world in which we live.”
