Kibbutzim are collective settlements in Israel which have been written about extensively over the years, and are praised as the only example in world history of entire communities attempting, voluntarily, to live in total equality. In this spare and lucid memoir, Neeman - a child of the kibbutz in the '60s - draws on the collective memory of the hundreds of thousands of people who grew up in kibbutzim during their height and who have intimately shared their memories with her.
