Her body lies nameless in a hospital morgue. She had apparently worked as a cleaning woman at a bakery, but there is no record of her employment. When a Jerusalem daily accuses the bakery of "gross negligence and inhumanity toward an employee," the bakery's owner, overwhelmed by guilt, entrusts the task of identifying and burying the victim to a human resources man. This man is at first reluctant to take on the job, but as the facts of the woman's life take shape--she was an engineer from the former Soviet Union, a non-Jew on a religious pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and, judging by an early photograph, beautiful--he yields to feelings of regret, atonement, and even love.--From publisher description. 650 0 $a Victims of terrorism $z Israel $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Gentiles $z Israel $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Jerusalem $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Psychological fiction, Hebrew.. 700 1 $a Halkin, Hillel, $d 1939- 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0623/2005033435-b.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0623/2005033435-d.html 856 41 $3 Sample text $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0659/2005033435-s.html 941 $a 4 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010014028.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418054000.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160823065258.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9ADF1EF02B0C11DE82774608A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IWVInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
