«Scene dalla vita di un villaggio» is the novel-in-stories by Israeli writer Amos Oz, published by Feltrinelli in paperback (184 pages, in Italian).
In the fictional village of Tel Ilan, an old man hears excavations under his house, the mayor receives a disturbing note from his wife, and recent wealth coexists with abandoned buildings and ruined shelters. Amos Oz turns these scenes of everyday life into a parable about Israel and about what appearances conceal.
Work originally published in Hebrew in 2009; this Italian edition of 2012 belongs to the Universale Economica collection and includes translation by Elena Loewenthal.
For readers of literary fiction and short stories with an interest in Israeli narrative and everyday life in Israel.
Amos Oz was an Israeli writer, novelist, journalist, and intellectual. He was also a professor of Hebrew literature at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. From 1967 onwards, Oz was a prominent advocate of a two-state solution to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.
