Between Friends

by Amos Oz - £8.99  Vintage (2014)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780099581475 | ISBN 10: 0099581477

In eight interlinked family dramas, master storyteller Amos Oz reveals the secrets and frustrations of the human heart.
 
‘On the kibbutz it’s hard to know. We’re all supposed to be friends but very few really are’
 
Ariella, unhappy in love, confides in the woman whose husband she stole.
 
Nahum, a devoted father, can’t find the words to challenge his daughter’s promiscuous lover.
 
The old idealists deplore the apathy of the young, while the young are so used to kibbutz life that they can’t work out if they’re impassioned or indifferent.
 
And amid this group of people unwilling and unable to say what they mean, Martin attempts to teach Esperanto.
