These Israeli lovers are comfortable and well travelled, and they want love to be simple: given and received with partners, children, family and lovers, and never like the marriages they grew up with. Somehow it gets complicated anyway. Set in Tel Aviv and Haifa and on trips to Paris, Moscow and Agra, the three short stories and two novellas ask whether Hebrew lovers can ever be free of the painful memories their parents carried.
