"Hemda Horovitz is nearing the end of her life. As she lies in bed in Jerusalem, memories from the past flood her thoughts: her childhood in the kibbutz spent under the gaze of her stern, pioneer father; the lake that was her only solace; and her own two children--one she could never love enough, and the other whom she loved too much. Avner, the beloved child, has grown up to be a heavy, anguished man, disillusioned by his work and trapped in a loveless marriage. When visiting his mother in the hospital, he witnesses a devoted couple's final moments together; after the man's death Avner becomes obsessed with finding the woman, and a strange and delicate relationship unfolds. Dina, Hemda's daughter, has put aside her career in order to give her teenage daughter, Nitzan, the warmth she never received from her own mother. But Nitzan is withdrawing from her, and Dina is overcome by a longing to adopt another child--a longing that, if fulfilled, may destroy her fragile family.Zeruya Shalev's electrifying new novel is at once a meditation on the state of modern Israel and a profound exploration of family, yearning, compromise, and the insistent pull of the past"-- Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

Tout le livre pose la question de savoir à quoi faut-il consacrer sa vie lorsque la moitié si pas plus a déjà été vécue.
J'ai mis longtemps à lire ce livre, dont l'atmosphère ne se découvre que peu à peu. Aucun rythme trépident et pourtant ces vies israéliennes vécues au plus profond des personnages sont véritablement attachantes et méritent d'être découvertes. Je retiendrai en tout cas le nom de cette auteure pour me pencher sur un autre de ses romans et vérifier si elle atteint à nouveau ce niveau de vraie littérature. ( )
