One of Amos Oz's earliest and most famous novels, My Michael
created a sensation upon its initial publication in 1968 and
established Oz as a writer of international acclaim. Like all great
books, it has an enduring power to surprise and mesmerize.
Set in 1950s Jerusalem, My Michael tells the story of a remote and
intense woman named Hannah Gonen and her marriage to a decent but
unremarkable man named Michael. As the years pass and Hannah's
tempestuous fantasy life encroaches upon reality, she feels
increasingly estranged from him and the marriage gradually
disintegrates.
Gorgeously written and profoundly moving, this extraordinary novel
is at once a haunting love story and a rich, reflective portrait of
place.
