Israeli Drama on Television 1968-1998. In 1971, the first Hebrew-Israeli drama series, "Hadva and Shlomik" (Shmuel Imberman, 1971, based on a novel by Aharon Meged), was broadcast on the only television channel in Israel, in black and white.

The book deals with this series and three series created after it: "Mr. Money", "Michelle Ezra Safra and Sons", and "Bat Yam - New York"

Precise instructions for writing a novel / Itamar Levy / Pardes

An excerpt from the novel appears on the back of the book, as Itamar Levy explains: "One of the most important and neglected parts of the book is the back cover... I have been approached again and again by the publishers who published my books, asking me to write a few words about the book and myself. I have refused every time. In almost all of my books, on the back of the book you can find an excerpt from the novel. This is, in my opinion, the right solution. If you liked what was written, if you were intrigued, you will want to continue into it as well."
