Murder in the Kibbutz (1993)

"Do those who flower a desert become desert themselves? Or do those who climb mountains turn into stones and boulders? This is a historical novel based on the experience of a Kibbutz in Israel. It is the story of triumph and achievement; and the murder of bodies, hearts, minds and ideologies and of the shaping of the strongest ideals by the basic fact of human existence. The passions with which the various characters in this novel struggle suggest that after all there is no escape from the basic ambiguity of the human nature, and today's rebel may indeed be tomorrow's fat cat."

In the Harem of the Sublime Porte (1993) is a historical novel based on the terrible events that took place in the Imperial harem at Topkapi in Istanbul, in the second quarter of the 17th century, during the reign of Sultan Murat IV, (1623-1640) and his brother Sultan Ibrahim, known as Ibrahim the Mad, (1640-1648). The novel is written from the view point of a eunuch in the harem who lived and participated in this intriguing historical period. The novel portrays cooly and clearly the bloody feuds, conspiracies and the frequent murders as every character follows his/her natural bent in an effort to survive and rule.

Withdrawal (1994)

How well can any person know another or trust his words?

How can thoughts, words, spoken or written, mean something else than what they seem?

Are there no limits to the claims of one's parents on one's life, or the internal stresses and strains of family life?

Do parents hold the power of life and death over their children?

Withdrawal is the story of a struggle between a burnt out modern psychiatrist and a Kabbalist with a fascinating religious outlook. It is built around the murder of a brilliant immunologist who set himself up above others in more than one sense.

The author had crafted compelling and unforgettable characters who move inexorably to a tragic climax.

El Harén de la Sublime Puerta (1996)
In the Harem of the Sublime Porte (1993) Translated by Mariá Isabel Butler de Foley

Una apasionante novela basada en los hechos que tuvieron lugar en el Harén Imperial de Topkapi a principios del siglo xvii, durante los reinados de los sultanes Murat IV y su hermano Ibrahim el Loco. Es un eunueo, Jaja, quien nos relata cómo fue capturado y castrado siendo un niño por traficantes árabes para ser vendido en los mercados de lstambul. Su Ilegada al Harén Imperial es el comienzo de una trepidante sucesión de acontecimientos en los que las luchas por el poder, las intrigas, el refinamiento, la seducción y la crueldad se entrelazan para conformer el auténtico núcleo del soberbio imperio turco. Jaja es el mejor guía en ese microcosmos dominado por las mujeres, que se desvela ante los ojos del lector con toda su carga de fascinación y peligro. Y es también el impecable cronista de una forma de vida cuyo esplendor no tuvo parangón en su tiempo.
