From “a marvelous new voice” (Rebecca Makkai), these “extraordinarily imaginative” (Sigrid Nunez), “revelatory” (Nicole Krauss), “superb” (Kiran Desai) stories transcend borders as they render the intimate lives of people striving for connection. WINNER OF THE AJL JEWISH FICTION AWARD • FINALIST FOR THE WINGATE PRIZE The Man Who Sold Air in the Holy Land announces the arrival of a natural-born storyteller of immense talent. Warm, poignant, delightfully whimsical, Omer Friedlander’s gorgeously immersive and imaginative stories take you to the narrow limestone alleyways of Jerusalem, the desolate beauty of the Negev Desert, and the sprawling orange groves of Jaffa, with characters that spring to vivid life. A divorced con artist and his daughter sell empty bottles of “holy air” to credulous tourists; a Lebanese Scheherazade enchants three young soldiers in a bombed-out Beirut radio station; a boy daringly “rooftops” at night, climbing steel cranes in scuffed sneakers even as he reimagines the bravery of a Polish-Jewish dancer during the Holocaust; an Israeli volunteer at a West Bank checkpoint mourns the death of her son, a soldier killed in Gaza. These stories render the intimate lives of people striving for connection. They are fairy tales turned on their head by the stakes of real life, where moments of fragile intimacy mix with comedy and notes of the absurd. Told in prose of astonishing vividness that also demonstrates remarkable control and restraint, they have a universal appeal to the heart.

Many of us choose a retail sales environment for employment at some point in our lives. This book is for everyone who is either in, or is about to go into a job that involves direct interaction with customers. Retail can be a challenge at times, but it can also be rewarding. Can I Help You? is a book with an ironic title that explains how to take care of customers from the greeting all the way to the closing and follow-up. The beginning of the book makes it clear that the title phrase is not the best way to greet customers because of its prompting of the most common response, “No thanks, I'm just looking.” Reading this will teach you, as a retail salesperson or associate, how to break the ice and welcome potential customers by using warmth, honesty, and good reputation-building methods. It will assist you in making those customers not only want to buy what you are selling but also become huge fans of your store or business. Can I Help You? is a fun and positive guide for regular people in regular sales jobs that want to succeed and feel good about their success while they are earning money at sales.
