Sinossi
CAFÉ NEVO is a Tel Aviv gathering place for artists, politicians, lovers, and Bohemians-both Arabs and Jews, young and old, conservative and radical. Nevo is presided over by Emmanual Sternholz, the waiter whose unblinking gaze takes in the tangled web of destinies and desires spun out around him. In this comic, tragic, and compelling mosaic of intertwined lives, Barbara Rogan has created a dazzling work of fiction-and a marvelously illuminating mirror of Israel in its pioneering heyday. Praise for CAFE NEVO: "An inspired, passionate work of fiction...a near-magical novel." -Kirkus Review "A wonderful novel...vivid...unforgettable." -San Francisco Chronicle "Fresh, funny, tragic, violent, sexy, mystical and romantic...Barbara Rogan's style is utterly engaging...works beautifully." -Christian Science Monitor "From the very first line of CAFÉ NEVO we are in the hands of a real storyteller. Barbara Rogan writes with compelling grace." -Alice Hoffman "Indeed a wonderful novel...with richly developed characters acting and interacting...the café and its clients will long remain in memory." -Madeleine L'Engle
