Ori Arazi was born in Tel-Aviv in 1962 and was abandoned in

the hospital after his birth. He lived in an orphanage for a year

and three months. Afterward, he was adopted. His father was a

successful lawyer and his mother was a microbiologist. When

he was twenty-seven years old, his father died, and a year later,

his mother died. Several years later, he opened his adoption file

and met with his biological mother and two siblings, who he is

in contact with until the present time.

Erez Maor – Outsider is an episodic novel and each chapter is

a self-contained story. Using first person narration, the book

unravels Erez Maor’s life story after his abandonment by his

mother, a young woman of Yemenite descent, and his adoption

by an affluent couple of Russian-Polish descent. Erez does not

remember his early childhood, but he assumes that he was

adopted because he doesn’t resemble his parents at all. Despite

the deep identity crisis he experienced, he describes most of

his childhood and youth in an optimistic tone – as a child and

youth he finds escape in books and adventures with his friends.
