The Song of the Whales

(4) 4-6 Translated by Hillel Halkin. Michael (or Mikha'el, as he's called in Israel) moves with his parents from New York to Jerusalem to be near his grandfather. There he learns that his grandfather has the ability to bring people into his dreams. While the magic realism of the dream world is evocatively drawn, the novella may be too quiet to engage many readers.
