Join author Noga Niv as she discusses her novel, Inside the Bubble, a captivating tale of the high tech world, the Israeli community in Silicon Valley and female friendship.
About the book:
In Silicon Valley at the turn of the millennium, the collapse of the dot.com bubble produced thousands of new millionaires and left behind many frustrated contenders who’d hoped the gold rush would never end.Against the backdrop of California’s high tech culture, stories from Silicon Valley’s emigre Israeli community unfold.
Daniela, a clinical psychologist and the mother of three, has followed her husband from Tel Aviv to the center of technological innovation, where she and her four closest female friends live in material comfort but grapple with homesickness. The women contend with the changing dynamics of their marriages and their individual transitions into middle age. They talk openly about men and women, about Americans and Israelis, and about life far from their home country. Secrets are half-spoken and plans are formed that will determine the course of their future.
Presented by The Oshman Family JCC
