Between Friends

Autor Amos Oz
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 iun 2014
This compelling collection offers glimpses into everyday life on a kibbutz, where misfits are united by political disagreement, and where every individual has a role but nothing is private. With his trademark insight into our shared humanity, Amos Oz leaves us with the impression that what matters most between friends is an unspoken agreement to disagree.

Descriere

Eight interlinked family dramas set on an Israeli kibbutz from the masterful storyteller behind A Tale of Love and Darkness'On the kibbutz it's hard to know.

Recenzii

Winner, 2013 Franz Kafka Prize

"[An] intricately interwoven skein of eight new stories. . . “Between Friends” richly satisfies. . . One savors these moody miniatures of the kibbutz past (gracefully translated by Sondra Silverston) for their jazzlike variations; each elegantly underscores the uncertain fates awaiting both the lonely individual and the community."—Forward "Oz traces the emotional terrain of kibbutz life in this. . . gorgeous, rueful collection of eight linked stories about life in fictional Kibbutz Yekhat. . . Written in deliberately unadorned prose (beautifully translated by Sondra Silverston), [Between Friends] lays bare the deepest human longings."
Chicago Tribune

"The mind is a place Oz explores masterfully in all its contradiction, texture and heartache. Between Friends paints the daily lives behind utopian dreams, fully realized."
New York Daily News

"[A] deeply affecting chamber piece [that] draws on…the contradictory urges that lie at the heart of Israel’s psyche."
—Ben Lawrence, The Telegraph (UK)

"Oz lifts the veil on kibbutz existence without palaver. His pin-point descriptions are pared to perfection… His people twitch with life."
Scotsman (UK)

"Lucid and heartbreaking… Oz explores the always uncertain relationships between men and women, parents and children, friends and enemies, in a clear, clipped language perfectly suited to the laconic tone of the narrative and impeccably rendered into English by Sondra Silverston"
—Alberto Manguel, Guardian (UK)

"A collection of stories….that boasts the sense, scope and unity of a novel…Breathtaking."
Irish Examiner (Ireland)

"A complex and melancholic vision of people struggling to transcend their individuality for the sake of mundanely idealistic goals."
Times Literary Supplement (UK)

"All Israeli life is here, rendered in loving detail."
Mail on Sunday (UK) —
