Beschreibung
The acclaimed author presents ';three passionate lectures about the state of politics in Israel' in this ';humorous, mournful, enraged, and uplifting' volume (Kirkus). A National Jewish Book Award Finalist Israeli author Amos Oz has won numerous awards for his novels capturing the cultural and political complexities of his country, including the Frankfurt Peace Prize, the Primo Levi Prize, and the National Jewish Book Award. But these essays on the universal nature of fanaticism and its possible cures, on the Jewish roots of humanism and the need for a secular pride in Israel, and on the geopolitical standing of Israel in the wider Middle East and internationally, ';may contain his most urgent message yet.' (Ruth Eglash, Washington Post). These essays were written, Oz states, ';first and foremost' for his grandchildren: they are a patient, learned telling of history, religion, and politics, to be thumbed through and studied, clung to even, as we march toward an uncertain future. ';Concise, evocative . . . Dear Zealots is not just a brilliant book of thoughts and ideasit is a depiction of one man's struggle, who for decades has insisted on keeping a sharp, strident and lucid perspective in the face of chaos and at times of madness.' David Grossman, winner of the Man Booker International Prize
