About this product
Product Information
In Facing the Fires, Bernard Horn introduces A. B. Yehoshua, Israel's greatest living novelist, to an English-speaking audience. Yehoshua is also his country's most audacious thinker about politics, culture, history, and Jewish identity. Yehoshua's achievement has been recognized throughout the world, and he has been awarded literary prizes in both Israel and the United States. A lively, controversial, and prophetic voice in his homeland, Yehoshua rigorously tests his community's deepest pieties: religion, Zionism, and the agony of the Holocaust. A Jew who does not believe in God, he is a committed Zionist and member of the "peace camp" in Israel that welcomed the Palestinian uprising of 1987. In the tradition of the Paris Review interviews, Horn's conversations with Yehoshua reveal the intricate play of literary, psychological, mythological, and political motifs in the novelist's work. Stimulated by a warm friendship between the two scholars, the intellectual energy of Facing the Fires offers readers a pleasure they might expect only from fiction.

Reviews
The short, delightful book Facing the Fires . . . . helps create a portrait of Yehoshua as a committed writer and thinker, integrally linked to the development of the modern state--both physical and psychological--of Israel., The reader of this volume sees into the troubled mind of a loyal citizen profoundly opposed to his government's policies. . . . A good choice for undergraduate and graduate collections.

Book was listed as in "Very Good" condition. I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was more in a "Like New" condition. Very pleased about this. Not so thrilled about paying US$53.94 + tax for the book. This has nothing to do with the seller. This is a rare item and this price would be considered a bargain price seeing that it is almost impossible to find a copy of this used book anywhere else. Great transaction. Well packed for shipping too. Thank you!
