"Tidhar changes genres with every outing, but his astounding talents guarantee something new and compelling no matter the story he tells." –Library Journal
The daughter of a legendary card player with skills of her own, Claire doesn't want to go into the family business. She's heard the call, and she desperately wants to become a nun. But when her convent comes under financial threat, Claire must leave what she loves to save what she loves–and enter an international poker tournament.
Both a poker novella and a meditation on faith, The Big Blind is a taut, heartfelt and compelling new book from multiple award winner Lavie Tidhar.
"Lavie Tidhar is one of the great writers of my generation." –Silvia Moreno-Garcia, author of Mexican Gothic
"An utterly original voice in contemporary fiction." –Daniel Polansky, author of The Seventh Perfection
"In a genre entirely of his own, and quite possibly a warped genius." –Ian McDonald, author of Time Was
