Download The Lady from Tel Aviv Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In the economy class of a plane, the lives of two passengers intersect: Walid, a Palestinian writer, is returning to Gaza for the first time in thirty-eight years; Dana, an Israeli actress, is on her way back to Tel Aviv. As the night sky hurtles past, what each confides and conceals will expose the chasm between them in the land they both call home. Walid soon discovers that Gaza has changed beyond all recognition. Yet through the haze of checkpoints and lives lived across borders, he finds a message from Dana that will change the course of his life. The Lady from Tel Aviv is a powerful and poetic story of love, loss and the desire to belong. The Lady from Tel Aviv will take you to the height of reading pleasure' Elias Khoury Al-Madhoun brings Gaza to life vividly through his characters and his ability to acknowledge the absurd within the tragic.'

Because of its more than 4,000 Bauhaus buildings, Tel Aviv is often called "the White City." The city center, created in the 1930s and 1940s under the influence of international modernism, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003. Photographer Stefan Boness captures the unique atmosphere of the city, juxtaposing classical modernism and contemporary architecture.

Download Bauhaus Tel Aviv Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In the 1930s the International Style was introduced into what was then Palestine by young immigrant architects, many of whom had trained at the Bauhaus and were escaping, with their families, from Nazism. The best-known was a late arrival, Erich Mendelsohn, who was working prolifically in Tel Aviv in the 1940s. Their fresh approach was swiftly accepted, displacing the orientalising, art-nouveau-influenced styles that had previously been attempted. The ideals of modernity found ready acceptance and the desire to build a new society, not influenced by older European traditions, caught on -- many thousands of Bauhaus-inspired designs were built in both Jewish and Arab cities. Tel Aviv was planned by Patrick Geddes as a 'Garden City'. This proved a particularly fertile context for the new designs using simple geometry, sitting on small, regular parcels of land. The buildings used reinforced concrete or simple plastered block construction and had open plans, roofs that provided liveable space, free elevations and strip windows. This guide provides an illustrated gazeteer to around one hundred of the best surviving Bauhaus buildings in the city, a collection that comprises one of the most developed examples of the modernist project.

"Tel Aviv is a place of contradiction, an urban dream of the Middle East where sleek European cafes sit beneath stone minarets; where Berlin-style hipsters sip coffee next to black-hatted rabbis; where charity, sex, conflict and controversy overflow the streets. In Tel Aviv Stories, Israel's "White City" is revealed. Through a tale of city madness in Spinoza Street, and the beggar's comedy, On Allenby; telling the secrets of an "urban witch" in White Hair Woman and showing the still-life of a young immigrant family in Mother, Father, Child; in the tragedy of twinhood in the novella Rivkah & Rebecca, and by tracing the footsteps of a lost life in Little Old Lady With the Flowers; and in a personal story of exile in Night of Grief, author Ashley Rindsberg gives outsiders entree into a strange world of Russian street virtuosos, flower selling whores, polyglot bums and the "Backwards Rabbi," as well as the middle-class immigrants and children of wealth who people Israel's tangled urban heart.""
