- Synopsis
- A novel of a Jewish family coming together, and coming apart, by an award-winning &“master storyteller&” (The Wall Street Journal). &“Anyone who has had experience of the sad and subtle ways in which human beings torment one another under license of family ties will appreciate the merits of A.B. Yehoshua&’s A Late Divorce.&” —London Review of Books A powerful story about a family—and a country —in crisis. The father of three grown children comes back to Israel to get a divorce from his wife of many years; another woman, newly pregnant, awaits him in America. Narrated in turn by each family member—husband and wife, sons and daughter, young grandson—the drama builds to a crescendo at the traditional family gathering on Passover eve. &“Each character here is brilliantly realized. . . . Thank goodness for a novel that is ambitious and humane and that is about things that really matter&” —New Statesman &“A master storyteller whose tales reveal the inner life of a vital, conflicted nation.&” —The Wall Street Journal
