![]() As the night wears on and the audience thins, his strange story intensifies and you can’t help but feel that you are part of his audience. Dovaleh is going to tell some jokes, yes, but mostly, he will tell a story. He’s been doing this a long time, but tonight is different. In the city of Netanya, Israel, Dovaleh G is doing a stand-up routine. Powerful storytelling and jokes that make you snigger in spite of yourself, David Grossman is an artist of black humour and a well deserving winner of the Man Booker International Prize 2018. This book slaps you in the face with every page – sometimes quite literally – with its palpable tension and heartbreak. A Horse Walks into a Bar By David Grossman (Translated from the Hebrew by Jessica Cohen) ![]()
