Five Selves

This book features five stories that explore identity and selfhood through one dominating aspect: from the death of a father to an irrational fear of dogs; from a rigid concept of what is right to the evolution of identity across the generations; and a final presentation of the essence of living and dying. With haunting, Kafkaesque prose, Emanuela Barasch-Rubinstein creates a series of profound, internal narratives. Originally written in Hebrew, these stories have been translated into English by the author.
