Gail Hareven’s New Yorker Debut

By Gabrielle Birkner April 29, 2009

Where the Forward goes, The New Yorker follows — in this instance, at least.

In February, the Forward brought you an excerpt from Gail Hareven’s recently released novel “The Confessions of Noa Weber” (Melville House) — the author’s 11th book, but her first to be translated into English — and this candid Q&A.

This week, the New Yorker has a short story by Hareven. Read it here.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.

Readers like you make it all possible. Support our work by becoming a Forward Member and connect with our journalism and your community.
