Love Life - Zeruya Shalev; Dalya Bilu (Paperback) 29-08-2002

An international No. 1 best seller and multi-award winning novel, Love Life, as Fay Weldon said, 'is like nothing else'. In a novel of formidable force and shocking immediacy, a young married woman's turbulent affair with an older man rapidly evolves into a feverish, lyrical exploration of the anatomy of obsession. When Ya'ara meets Aryeh, her father's boyhood friend, she is instantly drawn to his archly assured presence. She quickly forsakes her devoted and well-meaning husband for this powerful and mysterious older man, but as their heated affair intensifies, Ya'ara finds that the things in Aryeh that attract her also repel her with equal intensity. Love Life is an intelligent, seductive and provocative novel about relationships that marks the debut of an important new voice.
