פתח גדול מלמטה

Subtitled 'very romantic stories', the book observes love and sex between men and women through a woman's eyes, yet keeps sentiment at bay. Its 34 pieces add up to one serial narrative in three sections: the first moves through a marriage, the divorce and the separation; the second through a love affair with 'a new man' and the body; the third follows a woman who has chosen solitude and watches how others treat a woman on her own. Sharp and funny, the stories draw on Buddhist thought, Eastern philosophy and psychoanalysis.
