On Her Own: A Novel, By Lihi Lapid
Translator Sondra Silverston, Facilitated by Di Wulfsohn
A moving, page-turning story of two families in crisis and the unexpected places from which love can grow.
Nina, a teenage runaway, wakes up in the unfamiliar stairwell of a Tel Aviv apartment in a torn minidress. As her memory starts to resurface—the abusive older man she’s running away from, the crime she witnessed—she knows one thing: she needs to find a place to hide.
Set between the eve of Passover and Israel’s Independence Day, On Her Own is a tense and immersive psychological read about two families looking for redemption and the transformative bonds between strangers.
