From USA Today Bestselling Author, Uvi Poznansky, comes a poignant family saga:

Apart from Love is not your typical love story. It is all-consuming, heart-wrenching, and dark.

My Own Voice (“As told by Anita”):

Falling in love with Lenny should have been the end to all of Anita's troubles. But then, family secrets start unraveling. His ex-wife, Natasha, is succumbing to a mysterious disease. How can Anita compete with her shadow? How can she find a voice of her own?

And when his estranged son, Ben, comes back and lives in the same small apartment, can she keep the balance between the two men, whose desire for her is marred by guilt and blame?

The White Piano (“As told by Ben”):

Coming back to his childhood home after years of absence, Ben is unprepared for the secret, which is now revealed to him: his mother, Natasha, who used to be a brilliant pianist, is losing herself to mysterious disease, which turns the way her mind works into a riddle. His father’s new wife, Anita, looks remarkably similar to her—only much younger.

“In our family, forgiveness is something you pray for, something you yearn to receive—but so seldom do you give it to others.” What emerges in this family is a struggle, a desperate, daring struggle to find a path out of conflicts, out of isolation, from guilt to forgiveness.

★★★★★ “There is an air of mystery about the book that runs from the beginning to the final pages, but that also draws the reader in and makes the book difficult to put down.”

Although ‘Apart from Love’ is a tale about love it is no romance-novel. More a chronicle of desire. An introspective read that covers, from the view-point of multiple characters some of life’s issues.

Now I won’t go into plot details - They are in the book-blurb. I’m also not going to attempt to bosh out a review in a wordy intellectual way either. I don’t consider myself ‘well-read’ enough. Besides I prefer to speak from an emotional viewpoint. So here goes.

I first read samples of Uvi Poznansky’s work in way of her self-promoted advertisements posted on social media. Initially I was attracted by the richness of her book-cover artwork and then drawn in by the caress of her verse. I found her words possessed a special kind of tenderness. Something I felt my own writing lacked.

I decided I could use a lesson in regard to her rhythmic delivery of contemplative prose. The way she captures subtle nuances in glimpses and reflections. Or teases out emotions with a pause in her dialogue. She fashions both fleshly desire and clean naughtiness so adeptly.

It wasn’t long before I was reading and liking every post.

I particularly like this line from the book...

The waves roll in, threatening to swallow us whole. With a roar in their widening mouth, they are leaping ahead, then lapping the sand angrily, foam on their lip.

‘Apart from Love’ is a leisurely read that allows you to enjoy the moment of actually reading. This is what I get from Uvi Poznansky, what I admire mostly in her work.

When women are romantically depicted, enjoying a piece of chocolate whilst engrossed in a novel. This is exactly the type of stuff they are reading.

Paul Douglas Lovell.

Apart From Love
By Uvi Poznansky

Reviewed by R. Murry

The family dynamic has been written about since the beginning of time: the Biblical story of Joseph, Macbeth, and in the 1930s, William Faulkner's The Sound and The Fury. Like Faulkner, Ms. Poznansky uses more than one person to tell the story of "Apart From Love." Faulkner used four. Ms. Poznansky uses two: Ben and Anita. Their voices are orchestrated close to perfection in a loving way.

Each chapter is told by one or the other, explaining their understanding of the events which leads to conflict within the family circle: Ben's father and Anita's twice her age husband, Lenny; Lenny's first wife and Ben's mother, Natasha; Anita's mom; and three aunts round out the family Kaminsky.

Interwoven into the main character's discourses are the normal family emotions: greed, sex, hatred, control, loneliness, procreation, legacy, and everything you may think of "Apart From Love." No one ever uses the love word as in the phrase "I love you."

Anita and Ben are young and are thinking about each other. Lenny is old and is thinking about Natasha and what could have been had she not gone into a vegetable state. Lenny is recording his fictional novel as to what he believes is happening between his son and second wife. The novel turns out to be his memoir.

There are family mishaps, joyous times, secrets, and torments. Each narrator full fills their duty by translating their opinion of the events based on their background: Ben, a worldly educated one and Anita with her street smarts' schooling. They each speak a different language, although are of the same generation. The reader will enjoy their terminologies.

Ms. Poznansky pulls off a well written story of dependency. Every one of the characters are dependent on one another and are looking for support right up to the end of this skillfully developed novel. A very good read if you're looking for something "Apart From Love."

It is hard to determine the time frame of this book, maybe the 60s set in California. It is a dark love story, a dark story of people's secrets that drive Ben from his home and father at an early age. The story is told in two voices, Ben the wife and Anita, the second wife. Smith's voice is her voice, poor English and grammar. I think that the story is representative of a time when parents didn't really talk to their children and times when parents did not provide the emotional support and praise that children needed.

`Apart from Love' is quite unlike any story I've ever read, and I enjoyed every moment of it. The writing is full of lyricism and imagery, melancholy and hope, whilst the story seldom wanders very far from one cramped apartment in Santa Monica.
It is not a book that will take you on a journey through a place or an era, but rather through the minds of three people.
Anita, Ben and Lenny are undoubtedly connected through kin and marriage, yet are so sadly disconnected by their individual histories, secrets, guilt and remorse. They find an obscure way with which to communicate and reach out to each other, recording their voices and thoughts on an old tape recorder. The fact that they share this tiny living space, yet are so far from understanding each other is beautifully delivered through Poznansky's prose and style.
Anita is Lenny's second wife, articulate and eloquent with her desires and despairs despite her dreadful English, brash ways and lack of education. Ben, only a year older than Anita, is Lenny's son. He is recently returned after years estranged from his broken family. Natasha, Ben's mother and Lenny's first wife, is the white elephant in the room, her absence enormous and tangible.
`Apart from Love' is a clever, in-depth, unadulterated exploration of the thoughts of these individuals as they flow unheeded through their minds, allowing the reader to float, swim, wade, and splutter along with these oft times drowning characters.
The story wraps up in a wonderful way, pulling the threads together to make sense of the way the book has been structured.

I noticed that Poznansky is also the painter of the stunning cover design, her gift with word images spilling into visual art, proving herself a very talented artist.
