Description: FROM THE Editor's Introduction: This anthology offers a fictional tour of Jerusalem this time through the lens of the noir genre. Not all the stories in this book include a detective a femme fatale or a dead body. In fact a significant number of the writers chose to avoid these genre staples. And yet the stories - each taking place in a different part of the city - sketch a dark imagined map of the city where religious mystery dwells alongside the quotidian claustrophobic hubbub of the Central Bus Station The stories included in West Jerusalem Noir could not have taken place anywhere else. They reflect national religious and socioeconomic tensions inherent to the city and sketch an image of a concrete contemporary and complicated Jerusalem. Featuring Brand - NEW Stories BY: Yiftach Ashkenazi Ilana Bernstein Emanuel Yitzhak Levi and Guli Dolev - Hashiloni Liat Elkayam Assaf Schurr Yardenne Greenspan Ilay Rowner Zohar Elmakias Ilan Rubin Fields Nano Shabtai Yaara Shehori Tafat Hacohen - Bick Nadav Lapid Tehila Hakimi and Oded Wolkstein. West Jerusalem Noir is being published simultaneously with East Jerusalem Noir edited by Rawya Jarjoura Burbara. The companion volume explores the city with brand - new stories by Palestinian authors.
