ELIYAHU’S Mistress by Roger Mendelson is a mature love story set in Melbourne and the Dandenong Ranges.
Frances is a divorced woman who lives a life shaped by nature, her spaniel, strong Catholic faith and part-time marketing job with a Catholic chain of op shops.
She meets Steven, who is Jewish but not religious, and their relationship develops into a deepening friendship, a romance and completion of Frances’ deeply spiritual journey.
The book covers issues including the dynamics of a relationship between a Catholic and a Jew. It has an unexpected and dramatic but redemptive conclusion that will leave a lasting impression on the reader.
