Gail Hareven is one of Israel’s most prominent fiction writers, but she’s done a lot besides. Her studies of behavioral sciences and Jewish philosophy certainly help shape her works, which have only now been introduced to the English-speaking world. Her first book translated into English, The Confessions of Noa Weber (My True Love), won the prestigious Sapir Prize when it was published in Hebrew. In honor of this release, the Forward presented an in-depth interview with the author that sheds an interesting light on this work.
