A serio-comic novel that plunges into the life of Shmulik Gafni, an Israeli professor of Yiddish. Two contrasting lives plague Gafni: his extended, obsessive search in Poland for the man who murdered his father in the notorious Kielce pogrom, and his infatuation with Malina, a beauteous non-Jewish Polish linguist studying Yiddish. Guess who her private tutor is? Rumors fly. Will synchronicity also fly?
