Meir Shalev: Two She-Bears

(Fiction, 320 pp. Hebrew, 2013; English translation, 2016)

This unconventional literary thriller about two murders — one committed as an act of vengeance and the second as an act of retribution — takes place in a small agrarian village in Israel. Spanning three generations in one family’s life, this is a tale of love, betrayal, revenge, loss, brutality and salvation.
