not say night

Amos Oz

Even with this book of Oz reconfirm my unconditional love for the Israeli writer. It is a book written in 1994, long before then Story of Love and Darkness.

I do not want it as a story-metaphor for Israel, as it is always tempting to interpret the novels of writers Israel: Israel is always Israel. Of course Israel is also in this novel, because the story is set in a small town before the desert.

not say I want to instead analyze night Oz describes the relationship, showing sensitivity and refinement, between the two protagonists: Theo and Noa. They live together and are not married. He, successful urban planner, in his sixties, and several years younger than her who is very dedicated to take care of a father, at least, bizarre. They live in a small town across the desert and there are there because Noa chose to live her story with Theo.

After seven years of living together in a time when you feel the addiction of the report: Theo something happen. You do not have the feeling that too is as if the prelude was over? Noa, has the desire to break free from this relationship by demonstrating its unique capabilities, in addition to teaching. He wants to have his project, his own, in which jump pursuing social objectives. He wants to take the opportunity that the drug is given by the death of his student. Theo wants to break free from the influence of that course, the two, is the "personality".

But Theo, with a thin cruel game, perverse, in which, perhaps unconsciously, alternating interference discouraging and unexpected gestures of great tenderness, activates its jurisdiction and its authority, and prevent Noa, without an act of force, to achieve what he wanted. E Noa surrenders.

Detector thought of Theo How many times in the kitchen, I had a sudden desire to say something that really hurts. That hurt like a slap.

How often you need to hurt us because we love and can not think of making more independent from us? How many times have the need to not allow any generosity?

In a sense we can say that almost everywhere there are addictive substances.

It 's only for employees who remain with Noa and Theo? As can be alone without the other? It 's a great theme to be explored for all reports and not only those of love.

The novel has a structure of alternating points of view of him and her, and sometimes fits a voice outside.

For me, a very elegant book, great as always Oz.
