LILI: Love, Suspense, and Redemption of the True Kind.
Truth that dons a parable, now, under the pen of Nobel Prize nominee Shlomo Kalo, this story is ready to be told.
In the ruined underbelly of the city of Jaffa, an ascetic named Adon stumbles upon a prostitute named Lili – tied, gagged, and within an inch of her life. Adon makes the impulsive decision to save her life, little knowing that the girl, who he intends to part with as soon as he has delivered her to safety, carries more danger with her than he could possibly anticipate.
Lili’s notorious pimp, Shuki, isn’t willing to give her up just yet… He knows well the types he can toy with, extort and abuse, though something here tends to take surprising turns. As the three navigate the vivacious dance of Jaffa’s colorful and complicated backdrop, Lili finds something in Adon she had never imagined could exist. Vibrant, dynamic, unique, and utterly unforgettable, LILI is the story of a man who changes the world around him, one soul at a time.
Shlomo Kalo delivers another thought-provoking masterpiece that explores the zeniths of man’s compassion and the depths of his depravity. A master storyteller, Kalo narrates a razor-sharp tale of love, spirituality, and the stories that life is built upon.
“Lili is an ambitious, sweeping book, especially moving at the end…Shlomo Kalo is, obviously, a writer of talent, vision and significant accomplishment.” Daniel Menaker, HarperCollins
