Dreams, memories, cinematic reality and a fertile imagination all feature in Judith Katzir's four novellas that comprise this volume. In "Schlaffitunde", the author describes her first love, who is her cousin. "Fellini's Shoes" tells of a hotel waitress who dreams of becoming a movie star, who believes she can make her dream come true with the help of a failed director who once met Fellini. "Disneyel" is a daughter's monologue to her unconscious mother who is lying in a hospital bed. "Closing the Sea" tells the story of a mousy teacher who goes to Tel Aviv to meet a successful childhood friend only to be disappointed by the friend's apathy. When the sweet fantasy bursts, she is left with her memories.
