Joanna Bator, who is a doctor of Philosophy and a well known author in her native Poland, won the 2013 Nike Award for Dark, Almost Night.

Her 2009 novel Sandy Mountain was released in Hebrew (Translated by Ilay Halpern).

The new book unfolds the family history of four generations of women. It takes place in lower Silesia, which is a region of Poland Bator often writes about.

This is a fascinating novel which includes suspense, passion, love, and friendship between four women who are deeply connected to one another.
