—Lior Zaltzman, Kveller

“[A] comic masterpiece . . . the novel’s many savvy moments . . . reveal its undeniable humanity and make it such a delight.”

“Iddo Gefen has produced a marvelous novel­—wise, surreal, funny and a fascinating story. Mrs. Lilienblum’s Cloud Factory has traces of Gabriel García Márquez, mixed with the wise men of Chelm, and a dash of Sunset Boulevard. A spectacular achievement.”
—Max Gross, author of The Lost Shtetl

“Like all true writers, Iddo Gefen knows that stories can do everything—except take the place of life. That his characters discover this for themselves is a testament to Mr. Gefen’s uncanny gifts and his novel’s enchanting power.”
—Jonathan Rosen, author of The Best Minds: A Story of Friendship, Madness, and the Tragedy of Good Intentions
