Literary synopsis

Keren Cytter's absurdist novel tells the life story of "Media Star" Moshe Klinberg with language that suggests both a young woman's diary entry and an American action movie script. Cytter's intricate and evocative descriptions are accompanied by hilariously staged photographs, ostensibly taken from the personal archives of Moshe Klinberg.
