I’m in search of a good book (or audiobook) that takes place in Israel. I enjoy novels that make you feel like you’re enjoying the way of life in a particular place whether it’s their time spent in a coffee shop or the views out their window. I want to experience different countries in a comforting and positive way through the eyes of a character which can be fiction or non-fiction. Most of the Israel suggestions in this sub have to do with the conflict right now and while I realize there is a lot of conflict ongoing there, I want to experience the positive ways of life in Israel through a good book. Thanks in advance!
*Edit- for those of you making comments about the Israel Palestine conflict, please go elsewhere. This is a request for a good book and your negativity is not welcome here.

Mornings in Jenin by Susan Abulhawa
Exodus , Leon Uris, The Source, James Michener
The bible
Israeli fiction translated into English tends to be pretty grim, to be honest.
Etgar Keret is the only author that I can think of that’s lighthearted.
