The Same Sea Amos Oz 1e uitgave

?In a world full of hype, noise, and confusion, the simple lucidity of The Same Sea is totally unexpected.? ? New York Times Book Review

The Same Sea is Amos Oz?s most adventurous and inventive book, a novel of lyrical beauty and narrative power. We meet the middle-aged Albert; his wife, whom he has lost to cancer; his prodigal son, who wanders the mountains of Tibet hoping to find himself; and his son?s young girlfriend, with whom Albert becomes infatuated. The author himself receives phone calls from his creations, criticizing him for his portraits of them. A fever dream of chaos and order, love and eroticism, loyalty and betrayal.

?A prose poem . . . at once melancholic and sensual.? ? The New Yorker
