Judas - Brossura

A New York Times Editors' Choice "[A] magnificent novel... Oz pitches the book's heartbreak and humanism perfectly from first page to last, as befits a writer who understands how vital a political role a novelist can play."—The New York Times Book Review “Oz has written one of the most triumphant novels of his career.”—The Forward "Like Oz's nonfiction "A Tale of Love and Darkness," "Judas" grapples with big, historical matters for which there are no simple answers: the founding of Israel and the founding of Christianity. Both remain rich subjects to explore today."—St. Louis Post-Dispatch, "Best Books of 2016" "A scintillating novel...Many-layered, thought-provoking and – in its love story – delicate as a chrysalis, this is an old-fashioned novel of ideas that is strikingly and compellingly modern."—Observer “Judas is a vibrant specimen of a nearly extinct species, the novel of ideas...A fascinating coming-of-age story."—San Francisco Chronicle "The novel gives a finely vivid and sympathetic picture of a Jerusalem (and an Israel) that has largely disappeared...This book is compassionate as well as painfully provocative, a contribution to some sort of deeper listening to the dissonances emerging from deep within the politics and theology of Israel and Palestine.”—New Statesman “A very absorbing addition to [Oz’s] remarkable oeuvre.”—The Guardian   "Through the story of one young man at a crossroads, Oz presents thought-provoking ideas about traitors, a moving lament for the cost of Israeli-Arab conflict, and a heartfelt call for compassion."—Publishers Weekly "Oz  widely considered Israel's greatest living writer...is the equal of Kundera in depicting the kind of love that is accompanied more by sighs of impatience and reproval than of desire satisfied. Lovely, though with a doleful view of the possibilities of peace, love, and understanding, whether among nations or within households."—Kirkus
