"Oz's strangest, riskiest, and richest novel." --"Washington Post
Book World"
Israel, just before the Six-Day War. On a kibbutz, the country's
founders and their children struggle to come to terms with their
land and with each other. The messianic father exults in
accomplishments that had once been only dreams; the son longs to
establish an identity apart from his father; the fragile young wife
is out of touch with reality; and the gifted and charismatic
"outsider" seethes with emotion. Through the interplay of these
brilliantly realized characters, Oz evokes a drama that is
chillingly, strikingly universal.
" Oz is] a peerless, imaginative chronicler of his country's inner
and outer transformations." --"Independent "(UK)
