From the Inside Flap
The great new novel by Amos Oz, his first full-length work since the best-selling A Tale of Love and Darkness
Jerusalem, 1959. Shmuel Ash, a biblical scholar, is adrift in his young life when he finds work as a caregiver for a brilliant but cantankerous old man named Gershom Wald. There is, however, a third, mysterious presence in his new home. Atalia Abravanel, the daughter of a deceased Zionist leader, a beautiful woman in her forties, entrances young Shmuel even as she keeps him at a distance. Piece by piece, the old Jerusalem stone house, haunted by tragic history and now home to the three misfits and their intricate relationship, reveals its secrets.
At once an exquisite love story and a coming-of-age novel, Judas offers a surprising perspective on the state of Israel and the biblical tale from which it draws its title. This is Amos Oz’s most powerful novel in decades.
From the Back Cover
Praise for Amos Oz
“A writer of revelatory genius.” — Guardian
“The mind is a place Oz explores masterfully in all its contradiction, texture, and heartache.” — New York Daily News
“Once the eye falls upon Amos Oz’s rich prose, the other senses quickly succumb, because, like everything Oz, all things are plural, even the telling of a single man’s story.” — Seattle Times
“The glow [of Oz’s writing] . . . comes from the spare and unsentimental warmth of his own voice, his feeling for atmosphere, and his gallery of colorful misfits and individualists caught in communal enterprises.” — New York Times Book Review
“[Oz] is a peerless, imaginative chronicler of his country’s inner and outer transformations.” — Independent
