Waking Lions

Author: Ayelet Gundar-Goshen

Translated from the Hebrew by Sondra Silverston

2018 Longlist

Dr Eitan Green is a good man. He saves lives. Then, speeding along a deserted moonlit road in his SUV after an exhausting hospital shift, he hits someone. Seeing that the man, an African migrant, is beyond help, he flees the scene.

It is a decision that changes everything.

Because the dead man’s wife knows what happened. And her price is not money. It is something else entirely.

A gripping, suspenseful and morally devastating drama of guilt and survival, shame and desire. It looks at the darkness inside all of us to ask: what would we do? What are any of us capable of?
