Representaion Concering Books Per amore di una donna

Nevicò quel giorno, il 6 febbraio 1950, nella fertile valle di Iezreel, e Moshe Rabinovich si scagliò furiosamente con l'ascia contro un eucalipto secolare, un simbolo per tutti gli abitanti del villaggio, ma per lui soprattutto un mezzo attraverso cui si sarebbe attuato un tragico destino. Da questo episodio epocale per la memoria della piccola comunità, si diparte il lungo racconto di Zayde, il protagonista - ragazzino e poi uomo - che accompagna il lettore in un suggestivo viaggio sul filo dei ricordi. Al centro della storia è Yehudit, madre di Zayde, una donna forte e indipendente, custode di una sofferenza viscerale e di un lacerante segreto. Tre figure maschili si alternano sulla scena: sono gli uomini, diversissimi tra loro, che si contendono l'amore di Yehudit e la paternità di Zayde, occupandosene generosamente a modo proprio e secondo i propri mezzi. Mescolando voci ed episodi, passato e presente, Zayde ricrea una fitta trama di rapporti personali, di fatti che si intersecano per arrivare a ricostruire un mosaico esistenziale collettivo al cui centro campeggia il mistero di Yehudit, sfuggente e inarrivabile. Dominata dall'idea di un destino ineluttabile che grava su tutti "smisurato e indifferente", la narrazione procede secondo un ritmo pacato, scandito dai suoni, dai profumi - indimenticabili quelli delle prelibate cene che Yaakov, uno dei padri, prepara a Zayde - e dagli eventi di un microcosmo rurale che assurge a emblema universale.

Criticize Containing Books Per amore di una donna

I had to work hard to push myself through this book. Khaya was annoyed by the lack of a plot--a sentiment I agree with--and I was also bothered by the lack of characters. Yes, there are characters, but they aren't real people. They are archetypes. The book is a fable. If you are happy with fables, you'll probably enjoy it, since Shalev's writing is beautiful (if more than a bit repetitive). But i like a real story, with real characters and a plot. So this wasn't for me. 2.5 stars that I am

Shalev is one of my most favorite living authors, and this is, like the others, a very unusual and wonderfully written book. It feels, though, a little more...distant than say The Blue Mountain or Two She-Bears...and I can't put my finger on why. It might be the translation. The story is a lot less cohesive than his other novels, too, so that might play a role.The plot: an Israeli guy remembers his mother and his three "fathers" through a series of meals orchestrated by one of those fathers

I bought this book in Jerusalem a year and a half ago. Meir Shalev is an award winning, well known writer and I have two other books of his in my library. "The Loves of Judith" is beautifully written. You can't help but get caught up in the bird imagery - both literal and figurative. The characters are rich, and slowly revealed throughout the novel. It is a love story, between men and a woman, between that woman and the children she raises. A memorable read.

I loved the way this story was told, almost in circles slowly getting to the crucial point. It is the story of the love of three men for one woman, the mother of their son. The story covers 30 odd years, from the twenties to the fifties and takes place in a village in the Yizrael valley. The woman is Judith and the men are: Moshe Rabinovitz, a strong silent widowed farmer in whose stable she lives, the cattle dealer Gluberman, and Yakov Scheinfeld, expert in cooking, sewing, charming and dance.

lessons in love, lessons in life"You can hide everything in a box...in a box and in a cage and in a closet and in a room. Even love you can close up like that, real good. But memory has all the keys, and regrets...they even pass through walls. They're like the magician Houdini, they know how to get out and like ghosts they know how to get in, when and where they want."Aphorisms and sayings, a book full of lessons sprinkled full of natural beauty in the land of Israel and the passing of the

I don't know any other modern Hebrew author with such an effortless command of the language. It is a continuously enjoyable read: every other sentence could have been taken straight out of a poem.Shalev is also an excellent narrator of fables (which, by the way, also makes his children's books superb). This book has its share of short fables, mostly Diaspora-Jewry-style stories recounted by Yaakov (like the one about the guy who builds a huge hourglass and believes he will die when the sand runs

Ploughed through this on a vacation. Not sure I would have kept with it if other books had been around. There were many intriguing elements, and the language and often digressive storytelling are beautiful, but too much is left up in the air for my taste. I got no sense of Judith herself--only of other people's feelings for and reactions to her. The book moves slowly until the last fifty pages when everything climaxes and then comes to a complete stop. I didn't quite know if I wanted more or
