Produktinformationen zu „The Hill of Evil Counsel (ePub)“
Three stories of "sensuous prose and indelible imagery" that re-create the world of Jerusalem during the last days of the British Mandate (The New York Times).
Refugees drawn to Jerusalem in search of safety are confronted by activists relentlessly preparing for an uprising, oblivious to the risks. Meanwhile, a wife abandons her husband, and a dying man longs for his departed lover. Among these characters lives a boy named Uri, a friend and confidant of several conspirators who love and humor him as he weaves in and out of all three stories. The Hill of Evil Counsel is "as complex, vivid, and uncompromising as Jerusalem itself" (The Nation).
"Oz evokes Israeli life with the same sly precision with which Chekhov evoked pre-Revolutionary Russian life." -Los Angeles Times
