My parents came from different parts of the Jewish world-my mother’s parents came from Poland and Hungary and Austria during the time of Franz-Joseph and my father was born in Yemen. His father had come to Israel with three of his baby nephews but had encountered racism on some parts of the European elements of the population here and had immigrated to America hoping to find work there. My father, later me my mother there and they married-he died when I was eight years old and my mother remarried-I returned to Israel after having passed the age of consent-served in the army and obtained three university degrees-I worked in translation, married, have one hyperactive son and I write.
