Summary
“Ofer, my child, we will go together to the border. You will join the military convoy, and I will leave without looking back.” Rather than wait at home for news of her son, sent to the front, Ora sets out on a long walk through the hills of Galilee, convinced that as long as she keeps moving and no official can reach her, he cannot be harmed. With her travels Avram, the love of her youth, to whom she tells everything about the son he has never known. A monumental novel of motherhood, war and love by one of Israel’s greatest writers.
