Winner of the National Jewish Book Award of 1979, this classic novel of love and war is now available in ebook format for the first time! Violence shattered her golden world, and Leah's journey began... It swept her from the burning villages of old Russia to the tenements of New York, from the glittering showrooms of Paris to the settlements of war-torn Israel. It brought her marriage to a man who yearned for her sweet, denied love - and passion for a man who yearned only for danger. It gave her a son born of shame, and a daughter born to destiny. It tested her love in the shadow of the Depression and the hell of the Nazi fury... And then Leah's journey brought her home.

Far from home and in search of peace, Leah embarks on a journey to facilitate healing in both her private and public life. An unexpected love story set in tomorrow's Jerusalem. In this hopeful rendition of a Palestinian-Israeli future, Leah's choices ripple through time effecting all that she loves. But love is only the beginning as Leah discovers her power and begins to take up space in both her love life and her community. As a Black Jewish woman, she navigates life differently than her partners and hopes to pass on her wisdom to her ever-curious children. We watch as her untraditional family of six grows to navigate their mixed identities and lean into trusting one another in order to live up to their birth names. At the same time, we see the communities around them begin their parallel healing journey as they build that same level of trust. All of this takes place against a backdrop of an imagined future where technology facilitates collective healing and restores what has been missing: hope.

Finalist for the Book Club category of the 2016 National Jewish Book Awards. The #1 International Best Seller, The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem is a dazzling novel of mothers and daughters, stories told and untold, and the ties that bind four generations of women. Gabriela's mother Luna is the most beautiful woman in all of Jerusalem, though her famed beauty and charm seem to be reserved for everyone but her daughter. Ever since Gabriela can remember, she and Luna have struggled to connect. But when tragedy strikes, Gabriela senses there's more to her mother than painted nails and lips. Desperate to understand their relationship, Gabriela pieces together the stories of her family's previous generations—from Great-Grandmother Mercada the renowned healer, to Grandma Rosa who cleaned houses for the English, to Luna who had the nicest legs in Jerusalem. But as she uncovers shocking secrets, forbidden romances, and the family curse that links the women together, Gabriela must face a past and present far more complex than she ever imagined. Set against the Golden Age of Hollywood, the dark days of World War II, and the swinging '70s, The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem follows generations of unforgettable women as they forge their own paths through times of dramatic change. With great humor and heart, Sarit Yishai-Levi has given us a powerful story of love and forgiveness—and the unexpected and enchanting places we find each.

Close attention is paid to new methods of analysis and interpretation, including source critical studies of the historiography and inter-disciplinary approaches combining literary sources and material evidence.

“A youthful breakaway from the traditional Jewish society of White Russia, Berl Katznelson (1887-1944) emigrated to Palestine [in 1909] during the pioneering spasm of socialist Zionism known as the second aliyah. In the interwar period he helped David Ben-Gurion and Yitzhak Tabenkin to establish several of Israel’s enduring Labour party frameworks and trade union institutions and thus to bring about socialist Zionism’s early hegemony. Wherein lay the source of Katznelson’s immense authority? What was his particular contribution to the development of the culture and mores of the developing Jewish society of his times? Anita Shapira’s achievement lies both in her subtle presentation of these questions and in her temperate search for the answers... This richly evocative biography... will allow social historians throughout the Western world to appraise a figure who is now becoming justly revered in his own country.” — The American Historical Review “Anita Shapira’s [book] was something of a best seller when it first appeared in Hebrew in 1980 and it is not difficult to understand the reason... Dr Shapira recounts Katznelson’s life in the context of the fluctuating Arab-Jewish relationship and the waverings of mandatory policy; the whole dominated increasingly by the deteriorating Jewish position in Europe. That is what makes this book more than a biography — it is also a contribution to the history of Israel in its formative stage. The present English edition... remains an essential work for the understanding of Zionist and Israeli history.” — The English Historical Review “It is to the credit of Anita Shapira that she has single-handedly rescued Berl Katznelson from oblivion. When her book was first published in Hebrew, it immediately became a best-seller and its author the focus of a great deal of media attention. For good reasons. The book obviously touched a nostalgic nerve in the general public, perhaps a longing for a lost generation of giant idealists. But it could do so — though this was hardly the author’s intention — because it portrayed an unidealized, very human and therefore very real man. It is rare to find an historian Professor Shapira’s caliber, who also has the talents of a novelist... Throughout the book one feels the sure hand of the historian guiding the reader, examining with him the subject of the book from a few angles, employing a variety of techniques and sources (primarily archival), until a fully rounded personality emerges... this volume [is] a well-rounded, sympathetic, yet by no means uncritical analysis of one of the most fascinating figures in Jewish life in the twentieth century.” — Middle Eastern Studies “[T]he first full scholarly life of one of Israel’s founding fathers... The portrait which emerges here is of an attractive leader, whose personality inspired a degree of respect and devotion bordering worship. The author admits the difficulty in pinpointing the sources of Katznelson’s magnetism, but she demonstrates how it infused the varied facets of his socialist politics, which he took to be as much a moral as an organizational calling. In effect, his greatness was in his personification of the conscience of the Jewish labour movement in its formative phase in the interwar years.” — History “This book is an abridged version of a two-volume work in Hebrew, published in 1980. It covers Katznelson’s personal life and political activities in attempting to answer the riddle of his special leadership powers and can serve as an introduction to the study of Labor Zionism in Palestine between 1914 and 1944... this book makes a contribution to discovering the roots of today’s conflicts.” — Middle East Journal
