Über diesen Titel
The literary sensation that has stirred the French publishing world from award-winning author Marco Koskas.
Juliette has come to Tel Aviv to be with the love of her life. But when she shows up at Elias’s apartment, he’s with another woman. With nowhere else to go, Juliette falls in with a tight-knit group of French expats living in this city by the sea.
There’s Manu, the retired adult film star turned real estate agent; Diabolo, a former mobster and aspiring media mogul; and Olga, a head-turning beauty who becomes fast friends with Juliette. When Elias, a film school dropout, initiates a scheme intended to make him some fast cash so he can impress Olga with flashy jewelry, he unwittingly gets Juliette and Olga thrown in jail.
As all the friends try their misguided best to help one another, they all must ask themselves: Can people take responsibility for something they didn’t do in order to be absolved for all the things they have done?

The author jumps from one character to the next, often lacking in need to do so. There are about three or four characters too many for it to be a joy to listen to.
The moral of the story might be of some value, but in general this book did not need to be written.
At the same time, the horrid narrator ruins any promises this books might have implied to the listener. He is unable to pronounce the easiest places and streets in Israel, without his strange accent that is just annoying.
