Yerve from Assedo

Fifteen-year-old Zoya leaves home for the first time, from her loving family and beloved Odessa, to the Village of Zionist Pioneers — an Israeli boarding school. Not long ago, she was unaware of her Jewish roots, but after the collapse... of the USSR, her life, like that of many of her former compatriots, is rapidly changing. Zoya is about to learn the truth about her family's past and encounter the reality of another country that will become no less close to her without trying to please. The girl from Odessa desperately battles with the difficult task: by opening herself to the new, she must stay true to what she has left behind — and remain herself. In the delicate, ironic, and very human novel by Vika Roitman, the coming-of-age story of a teenage girl who learns to cope with turbulent emotions and make independent decisions is inseparable from the atmosphere of the nineties, with its sharp mix of confusion and hopes on the threshold of an open world.
