MARGARET ATWOOD In the middle of the twenty-first century, life as we know it has changed for all time.

My wife Joy, and I, lived for a while with our granddaughter Shira and her family. I often told Shira stories as she lay in bed before going to sleep. Shira liked the stories so much that I promised to write a book of them for her. The stories are in the form of modern fables. They cover history, emotions, morality, experiencing the world and gaining wisdom. Shira also loves my paintings so I decided to combine the two: anecdotes and artwork. The paintings are oil on canvas and span 2017-2018.

An anthology of feminist cyberfiction and theoretical and critical writings on gender and technoculture. Most writing on cyberculture is dominated by two almost mutually exclusive visions: the heroic image of the male outlaw hacker and the utopian myth of a gender-free cyberworld. Reload offers an alternative picture of cyberspace as a complex and contradictory place where there is oppression as well as liberation. It shows how cyberpunk's revolutionary claims conceal its ultimate conservatism on matters of class, gender, and race. The cyberfeminists writing here view cyberculture as a social experiment with an as-yet-unfulfilled potential to create new identities, relationships, and cultures. The book brings together women's cyberfiction—fiction that explores the relationship between people and virtual technologies—and feminist theoretical and critical investigations of gender and technoculture. From a variety of viewpoints, the writers consider the effects of rapid and profound technological change on culture, in particular both the revolutionary and reactionary effects of cyberculture on women's lives. They also explore the feminist implications of the cyborg, a human-machine hybrid. The writers challenge the conceptual and institutional rifts between high and low culture, which are embedded in the texts and artifacts of cyberculture.

A mysterious crime. A ruthless secret society. And a desperate bachelor... Is love worth the risk? In Katamon, the singles hub of modern-day Jerusalem, Dave Schwarz fails miserably in his mission to find a better half. When he stumbles upon the mystical key to a woman's heart, matters only get worse. The secret draws him into a web of baffling crimes, archaeological enigmas and religious conspiracies, and pits him against dark forces itching to trigger the End of Days. Holding out for a hero Mandy Rosenberg has taken a break from New York to study in Jerusalem. In other words, she's shopping for a husband. Down-to-earth but jaded by years of dating, she finds unexpected romance with Dave. But is he really her long-awaited hero? Or will the dark side of their relationship threaten all? A Love and Beyond is a lighthearted, emotional rollercoaster through Jerusalem's Katamon neighborhood and its dating scene. The multi-layered adventure explores the lore and legends concerning soul mates and the secrets of the Dead Sea Scrolls, and blazes a path through hidden corners of Jerusalem and undiscovered archaeological ruins. The colorful cast includes a sexy flatmate, a dodgy restaurateur, and a hotel manager with secrets of his own. The trail of discoveries might even expose a billion-dollar buried treasure and a cover-up regarding the birth of Christianity. In this tale of love and deception, hope and guilt, courage and misadventure, Dave has to choose between shattering his heart and jeopardizing his life. Praise for Dan Sofer "Tightly-written, with a vein of wry comedy that finally erupts into a frenzy of biblical proportions, the story keeps us compulsively turning pages... A very fun read!"- Yael Unterman, author of The Hidden of Things: Twelve Stories of Love & Longing (Yotzeret Publications) "It overwhelmed me with its rich style... not to speak of a surprise ending that I could not foresee... Bravo!" - Leo Haber, editor of Midstream Magazine (regarding Dan's short story, Larry and Kate)
