JBC is thrilled to partner with HarperVia on a giveaway of four incredible books from Jewish writers at the publisher dedicated to publishing extraordinary international voices. Scroll below to learn more about these four stunning novels—The Lost Shtetl by Max Gross, The Only Daughter by A.B Yehoshua, Stockholm by Noa Yedlin, and On Her Own by Lihi Lapid.
On Her Own by Lihi Lapid, translated by Sondra Silverston
“From start to finish, On Her Own is an engaging, illuminating story of family and injury. It examines grief, the fallacies of wishful thinking, and persistent hope in a way that many readers will find memorable.” ‑Benjamin Selesnick
Stockholm by Noa Yedlin
“An eight-day timeline serves as a pressure-cooker for this joyous and bleak comedy of errors. Yedlin has created a moving and funny narrative about a group of friends, each full of regrets, desires, and insecurities that are cast into sharp focus following the death of Avishay.” ‑Omer Friedlander
The Only Daughter by A.B Yehoshua
“The Only Daughter tells the story of twelve-year-old Rachele Luzzatto, an Italian Jewish girl who must simultaneously navigate the Christmas holidays and her father’s sudden health problems.” ‑Isadora Kianovsky
The Lost Shtetl by Max Gross
“What if there was a hidden Jewish village in Poland that escaped the Holocaust? … Alive with human emotion, history and provocative questions that call for debate, Max Gross’s first novel is a discussion group’s dream.” ‑Sharon Elswit
