Overview
A young prostitute walks through a nocturnal city with imprecise boundaries, perhaps Tel Aviv. She calls herself Libby, "my heart" in Hebrew. She gets in and out of cars with laconic drivers and shares moments of humor and sisterhood with other sex workers. Her life is like a dream that happens to another person, a sum of violence and a form of freedom in which one cannot be free. The narrative debut of Israeli Maayan Eitan, which caused a huge stir when it was published in her country, has been hailed as a rare masterpiece. In short and hallucinatory chapters of high literary voltage, Amor narrates both the truth and the lie, and is made unforgettable thanks to its protagonist, the disturbing Libby, discarnate and fleeing under the paralyzing attention of male desire.
