An only child for the first 13 years of his life, Moshe Marcus always knew that the riveting story of the brothers who found each other as adolescents, only to lose each other some years later, would, one day, have to be told.

Marcus, who dabbled in multiple artistic pursuits most of his life, and had a successful business career, decided to apply his creative writing talent and turn his childhood story into a novel.

His writing captures the rich cultural background of displaced Romanian Jews trying to find their cultural niche in the newly developing Israel of the 1950's and 60's.

Always a lover of music, art and social dancing, Marcus divides his time between Miami and Tel Aviv, family and friends and his work on his next novel.
