Edición de la obra Foreign brides

"In Foreign Brides, Elena Lappin's debut collection of short stories, women (and men) cope with marriage across cultures in London, New York, and a constellation of European and Israeli cities."--BOOK JACKET. "In "Noa and Noah," Noa has been married for two years before her English improves and she realizes that her British husband, Noah, is not a glamorous young businessman but a dull junior debt collector. In revenge she begins to frequent a sexy unkosher butcher - and that's just the beginning. Vera, married to an unsuccessful British butler, takes to cab driving and extortion in "Peacocks"; Paula, married to her dead best friend's husband, writes stories and snorts cocaine in "Bad Writing." Displaced though they may be, Noa and her compatriots forge heedlessly ahead - and backwards and sideways - into the unknown or into the mundane."--BOOK JACKET.
