Sounds like the genre of books my father-in-law enjoys. I prefer literary fiction; titles I've enjoyed recently include Phillip Roth's "American Pastoral" and Paul Auster's "Brooklyn Follies."
Speaking of Israeli writers, my translation of Israeli poet Rachel Eshed's book Little Promises (http://mayapplepress.com/Eshed.htm) deserves a wide readership. In its Hebrew original, this collection of intense erotic poetry won the 1992 AKUM prize in Israel. Novelist Tsipi Keller says, "It is hard to speak of Rachel Eshed's poetry without mentioning 'fire' : her poems virtually burn on the page, and David Cooper's renditions not only do justice to the original but magnify its richness."
Many of the poems in my ebook "Glued TO The Sky" have Jewish themes/content. It is published by PulpBits (http://pulpbits.com).
