This is a nice (I hope) mystery cache that will require you to do some brainstorming (or a lot of Wikipedia search). Since this cache is about book authors the starting coordinates will take you to Beit-Ariela(בית אריאלה)
About the Beit-Ariela (Shrine of books)
For over 125 years Beit Ariela was the main book library of Tel-Aviv. It has a huge book collection in many languages such as: German, Russian, English, Yiddish and Spanish. It also has an impressive microfilm collection of all the newspapers dating from 1979 until today.

About the Cache
This is a similar idea to my SCIENCE cache but with a different theme. The image above contains images of some of my favorite book authors. What you need to do is look at the images and try to identify each one of these authors, find out their birth date and write down the MONTH. For example if A was Etgar Keret (which is another author I love but he is not on the list), he was born on Aug 20, 1967 so A=8.
Now the cache is waiting for you at
N 32 0X.YZW E 034 4T.MNO
X = G+J
Y = B
Z = D-G
W = D-E
T = H
M = A-I
N = F/J
O = C
Some Hints (if you don't want them just don't read them)
1. A-C are Israeli writers
2. One of the authors loved a big fish
3. There are at least 3 writers that wrote about science-fiction or fantasy
