A novel set in a small Israeli comedy club, following an aging stand-up comic whose performance turns into a raw confession of childhood trauma, fractured relationships, and grief. Blending humor with discomfort, it explores memory, identity, vulnerability, loss, and the uneasy boundary between entertainment and truth.
