King of the Class

by Gila Green

Description

Eve and Manny are engaged in post-civil war Israel, but Manny has a secret: he’s falling in love with his religious roots and turning his back on moral relativism. As their wedding date approaches, Manny deserts Eve, and in the midst of this betrayal Eve collides with a pre-soul, leaving her with a choice: reconcile with Manny or else condemn a soul to never living. More than a decade later, Eve has her own secret, one that may save her only son’s life or else tear her family apart. King of the Class is a futuristic satire on the toxic brew of religion and politics in modern Israel, poking a playful finger at parental gold-digging and technological dependence.

About the Author

Gila Green grew up in Ottawa, Ontario and moved to Israel in 1994 when her South African fiancé's visa application to Canada was rejected. As a teenager, she spent many summers on an Israeli kibbutz, but never adapted to wearing that blue uniform and eating the heaviest meal of the day at noon. When she's not raising her children, Gila writes, edits, teaches and publishes fiction because, hey, it's cheaper than therapy. King of the Class is her first novel.
