The World a Moment Later
註釋"Leon Abramowitz never intended to immigrate to Palestine. Yet in 1922, four years after he was sent there to report on pioneer lives, he discovers that the editor who dispatched him has run off with half of the paper's money, leaving Leon forgotten in The Promised Wilderness. This chain of events opens The World a Moment Later, which tells the story of Abramowitz and his two children. This is also the story of Yehezkel Klein, an ex-underground activist who wanted to be a "regular" Zionist but finds himself instead taking a vow of protest against his country - to never to leave his apartment; Lev Gutkin, a handsome Russian who arrives in Israel with a smoking gun after his plan to assassinate Stalin is thwarted when Stalin dies; the late Naomi Riklin, who still controls the life of Doctor Riklin, healer of the infertile; and Shmuel Klein, an electrician by profession and a pyromaniac by hobby."--BOOK JACKET.
