The Lover Paperback - 1993

by A. B. Yehoshua

Summary

“Elusive, haunting.”—New York Times Book Review

A husband’s search for his wife’s lover, lost amid the turbulence of the Yom Kippur War, is the heart of this dreamlike novel. Through five different perspectives, Yehoshua explores the realities and consequences of the affair and the search, laying bare deep-rooted tensions within family, between generations, between Jews and Arabs.

“[A] profound study of personal and political trauma.” —Daily Telegraph

"Has the symmetry of an elegantly cut gem.” —The New Yorker

Description:
New York: Harcourt (Harvest Book), 1993. Nice soft cover copy of this Israeli novel, translated by Philip Simpson from the Hebrew. A bit of wear on the cover. No highlighting or underlining. Fascinating probing of Arab-Israeli relations, set in a context of war. Lots of images that will stick in your memory--a group of Bedouin lifting the 1947 Morris out of the sand to help the stranded Jewish soldier, that's just one. . Soft Cover.
