Day After Night
Praise for Day After Night “Like The Red Tent, Day After Night is a woman’s–eye view of Jewish history, this time, though, thousands of years after biblical times. Nearly all the action is set in 1945 at a British internment camp outside Haifa… and zooms in on four women. “Diamant presses a deft finger on the pulse of the moment’s tragedy–miracle that is at once intensely private yet also destined for history books. Each woman’s personal struggle to make some peace with the horror she survived arches into the national destiny itself in this old–new land. “In bringing us into their stories, Diamant gives us vulnerability and heroism in equal parts. Day After Night makes an unforgettable read and is her best book yet.” —Hadassah Magazine
Named a Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post and
