| Abstract | A funny tale on the inhabitants of a Jewish quarter in a 19th century Persian town. A pregnant girl pines for marriage, a prostitute is accused of sleeping with the devil, a wife hides her ugly features by spreading a thin layer of goat butter on her husband's glasses. A first novel by an Israeli writer. One of the characters is a Bahá'í woman, so the word appears throughout this section. |
