Windows / Okna (Russian Language Edtion)
Windows is the conceptual collection in a rather strict sense of the word. Nine stories by the famous Russian Israeli author about windows, looking to or from life, are accompanied by paintings by Boris Karafyolov also depicting windows, people in windows, people looking through windows, or turning from them. The book is stunningly beautiful as an art object or a living being. In it, there are marvels, as usual. The author and the painter open different windows for the readers, the ones into their own childhoods, into the lives of passers-by, friends, and relatives. Some of those windows are made of stained glass, and they are installed in temples. Some of those windows are in Venice, and some are in Jerusalem.
