I felt gross reading this. The narrator is a horny teenage Jewish boy. He talks about having a girl that he never met before give him a blow job in a bathroom in detail. He tells us about losing his virginity at 15 with his 15 year old girlfriend again in detail and I have no desire to read about children having sex. Then the family takes in this 18 year old Ethiopian girl and he talks about things she asks him to do to her, things he does, and things he wants to do. I was just grossed out the entire time.… (mer)

This is a really repulsive book. There is not one likeable character in it There is a great deal of sex in the story, but it is not in the least erotic. The author writes about sex like an auto mechanic writing about doing a tuneup! Not recommended.

Operation Solomon....Barbra, a 5 year old Ethiopian Jew is brought to Israel. Turning teenager...she is sent to stay with a family for the summer. The narrator is the son of the father that has welcomed Barbra in. Barbra...what a character. She is not shy. She is not someone conflicted with traumas to the point that she is meek and afraid. Quite the opposite. She is fierce to the point of cruelty. She is rebellious and well experienced in sexuality and she uses that sexuality to gain power. The narrator...immediately becomes sucked into Barbra's sexual games. He becomes sucked into everything about her and thus gets led down a tumultuous snare of games and deception. At some point they go their separate ways and the narrator lands in University and another girlfriend..however that relationship is marred with the experiences and feelings he had for Barbra. Then Barbra reappears....

It's provocative, salacious, raw....scathing, maddening...I hated the characters and I think that in a sense the story would not be so good if I didn't. I yelled at the narrator as he pulled away and gravitated back into Barbra's grasp. It's crass and too much...offensive most times...but interesting. This story will leave you exhausted and I think that is the intention. Not for the faint of heart. It's meant for the reader that dares to explore...that wants to be right in a tale so bold and chaotic it leaves you stirred well past ending.

I've never read a Tamara Faith Berger book beyond this one...and it is my goal to change that.
