Avraham B. Jehošua Libros

A todos emociona sin duda esta narración autobiográfica en la que la autora expresa, con la intensidad del deseo, esa historia de amor entre una adolescente de quince años y un rico comerciante chino de veintiséis. Esa jovencita bellísima, pero pobre, que vive en Indochina, no es otra que la propia escritora quien, hoy, recuerda las relaciones apasionadas, de intensos amor y odio, que desgarraron a su familia y, de pronto, grabaron prematuramente en su rostro los implacables surcos de la madurez. Pocas personas -y en particular mujeres- permanecerán inmunes a la contagiosa pasión que emana de este libro.

A couple, long married, are spending an unaccustomed week apart. Ya'ari, an engineer, is busy juggling the day-to-day needs of his elderly father, his children, and his grandchildren. His wife, Daniela, flies from Tel Aviv to East Africa to mourn the death of her older sister. There she confronts her anguished brother-in-law, Yirmiyahu, whose soldier son was killed six years earlier in the West Bank by “friendly fire." Yirmiyahu is now managing a team of African researchers digging for the bones of man’s primate ancestors as he desperately strives to detach himself from every shred of his identity, Jewish and Israeli. With great artistry, A. B. Yehoshua has once again written a rich, compassionate, rewarding novel in which sharply rendered details of modern Israeli life and age-old mysteries of human existence echo one another in complex and surprising ways.
