Nothing Gold Can Stay:
18 Stories of Israeli Experience

Fiction. Nothing Gold Can Stay is a collection of short stories by the Israeli-American writer Jerome Mandel. These “troubling tales beautifully told,” subtitled 18 Stories of Israeli Experience, address who we are, why we came here, what we found here, and what we became here. One reviewer comments that “The power of Mandel's stories resides not only in his revelation of the dark underbelly of human actions and emotions, but also in his evocative descriptions of people and places.”

One of the short stories, “Third Time, Ice Cream,” won the 1997 P.E.N.–UNESCO International Short Story Prize
