Uri Full of Light

By Holly A. Sortland

"A stunning, thrilling read by a promising new author."

"The best book I've read all year." -Booksprout reviewer

Eighteen-year-old Hannah Hagen, an outgoing and rebellious gentile girl, meets 17-year-old Uri Geller, a modern Orthodox Jewish boy, in unlikely circumstances in the late 1990's. Their meeting brings Hannah out of an abusive relationship and into a religious and spiritual transformation and life in a community that gives her connection and meaning.

At the height of the suicide bombings in the early 2000's, Uri and Hannah must navigate through the complexities of faith, death, and an unlikely turn of events.

Spanning three decades and two continents, Uri Full of Light is a story of conversion, redemption, and two inseparable lovers during the turmoil and aftermath of Israel's Second Intifada. Uri and Hannah's relationship is a testament to the strength of the human spirit in unthinkable tragedy, and the remarkable capacity to forgive.
