It is probably fair to say that when most architectural historians think of Tel Aviv, they think of the White City, that sparkling UNESCO World Heritage jewel that includes an urban plan by Patrick Geddes and approximately four thousand Bauhaus buildings designed by Jewish German emigre architects who fled Nazi Germany for British Mandate Palestine from the 1930s through the 1950s. Although that thought trajectory is more than justified on aesthetic grounds, Tel Aviv has other architectures and darker, alternative narratives of place that are every bit as important as its stories of sleek modernism. It is to one of what Israeli architect Sharon Rotbard has called "Black Cities" that Gabrielle Anna Ber-linger directs our attention in her recent ethnographic study of ritual dwellings, Framing Sukkot: The "Black Cities" of Tel Aviv are the place where socially and economically marginalized people, like working-class Mizrahi (non-European) Jews, temporary foreign workers, undocumented migrant workers, many of them from Africa, and, in Rotbard's narrative, Israeli Arabs, live. Berlinger settled in one such "second Israel" for sixteen months of fieldwork in 2010 and 2011. At the edge of Tel Aviv proper, the neighborhood of Shchunat Hatikva ("neighborhood of hope," colloquially known as Hatikva) offered Berlinger a rich field for the folkloristic study of the temporary ritual dwellings known as sukkot (singular sukkah). Built yearly for the holiday of Sukkot, which commemorates the forty-year journey of the Biblical Israelites through the Sinai desert, the little huts symbolize, among other things, the yearning for a permanent home and the impermanence of the material world. They are a very old building type for which there are three thousand years of documentary and material evidence.
