The Bus Driver Who Wanted to Be God & Other Stories (2015)
“He thought his dad had an earthmoving business. And when his dad used to pull the snub-nosed Beretta out of his bottom drawer every morning and check the .38-caliber bullets one by one, he thought it was because he spent so much time working with Arabs from the West Bank. The son of the Head of the Mossad had long skinny legs and a funny name. They called him Oleg, after a friend of his dad’s who was killed in the Six Day War, and in the summertime, whenever you saw him in shorts, swaggering on... those two skinny white stilts of his, you thought that he was about to topple over at any second.

He seemed such an unlikely candidate for son of the Head of the Mossad that sometimes you couldn’t help asking yourself whether it wasn’t just another stunt that his father, the Head of the Mossad, had thought up to disguise his true identity.
