- Summary
- "For a quarter of a century, Leib Solomon worked the land of Nahalat Olam and built for him and his wife the a rectangular house made of ground shells, overlooking the sea above the kurkar cliff, in a secret place, on the thin border between reality and imagination. While outside the days and years pass as usual, time in Nahalat Olam freezes and does not allow the people of Nahala to age or grow old. However, when the charismatic rabbi Nathaniel Franco asks for their eternal life, the inhabitants of the estate are forced to move mountains to protect this paradise." --
