A TALE OF LOVE AND DARKNESS, A NOVEL BY AMOS OZ (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)
Hi there! Today I'll share a review for a book I'm quite emotionally attached to. A Tale of Love and Darkness is a wonderful memoir ( I would call it an autobiographical novel) by Israeli writer Amos Oz. Published in 2002, this memoir has been translated in about 30 languages. Moreover, it has sold million of copies. A Tale of Love and Darkness chronicles much of Oz's childhood in the early days of state of Israel but it also explores the history of his family. Oz writes a lot about his relationship with his parents, especially with his mother. There's also a movie adaptation (worth noting for those who are not inclined to love reading). Now, I've read many books by Amos Oz (review for his novel Fima here), but among all of his books, this one seems the most significant to me. Moreover, A Tale of Love and Darkness remains my favourite one. What I particularly remember is the complexity of it. Plus, it's simply a perfect book...
