Book Overview

WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE - From the bestselling author of To the End of the Land comes a searing story of loss and survival.

In a dive bar in a small Israeli city, Dov Greenstein, a comedian a bit past his prime, takes the stage for his final show. Over the course of a single evening, Dov's patter becomes a kind of memoir, taking us back into the terrors of his childhood. And in the dance between comic and audience, a deeper story begins to take shape as Dov confronts the decision that has shaped the course of his life--a story that will alter the lives of several of those in attendance.

A Horse Walks Into a Bar is a poignant exploration of how people confront life's capricious battering.
