World Shadow

Discover 'World Shadow', a compelling trade paperback exploring the intricate webs of politics, money, power, and corruption in today's world. Set against the backdrop of the mid-1990s, this provocative novel narrates Gabriel Mantzur's journey through Israel's booming business landscape, where he intersects with the elite circles of influence. As he climbs the echelons of power, Gabriel realizes that the deeper he delves, the more entangled he becomes in a labyrinth of political intrigues and moral dilemmas.

Transitioning to the present, the narrative shifts focus to a group of young Londoners who are fed up with societal inequalities. Unemployed and disillusioned, they gather to ignite a global strike, challenging the effects of globalization and advocating for social justice. Their impassioned movement mirrors the underlying themes of power dynamics and the struggle against the status quo.

Amidst this backdrop, an American political consulting firm reveals its dual nature—posing as a pro-liberal entity while engaging in sinister operations worldwide. The novel intricately weaves these threads together, providing a stark reflection of contemporary issues.

Description:
A fast-paced novel about politics, money, power and corruption that holds a mirror up to the present day.

It's the mid 1990s. Gabriel Mantzur wants to take advantage of all the business opportunities opening up in Israel. Moving in political and financial circles, he finds his way into the upper reaches of power-but the higher he goes, the less he understands the intrigues in which he is involved.

Cut to the present. A group of young Londoners-homeless, unemployed and disaffected-is organising a worldwide strike to protest globalisation and inequality. Sick of being screwed over, they conspire to overturn the prevailing order.

Meanwhile, an eerily familiar American political consulting firm, with interests everywhere from Bolivia to the Congo, ostensibly exists to further liberal and progressive causes-until the veil is drawn back on the true nature of its activities.

With its masterly interwoven narrative strands and its global perspective, World Shadow confirms Nir Baram as a major contemporary writer on the world stage.
