About This Novel

"The Same Sea" is a poetic novel. It is Oz's most valued work. It is also a novel in which he unreservedly poured his ideals and talents. It is known as "Israel's Love in the Time of Cholera". Not far from the sea, sixty-year-old Albert lives alone on Amirim Street. His wife died of ovarian cancer early one morning. Their only son went to Tibet despite his father's objections in order to find himself. The son's girlfriend is penniless and moves into Albert's house. He believed in religion, but she was dangling in front of him in a short skirt that could not cover her body, and she stayed up all night, which made him obsessed. The dead souls of father, son, girlfriend, mother... Everyone is locked in the lonely sea in their hearts, loving each other, hurting each other, despairing of each other, and compromising each other.

Nietzsche said: Those who fight monsters should be careful not to become monsters. When you stare into the abyss from a distance, the abyss is also staring at you.

Poems about Immortals Jinghua Ranger Cave ①, a retreat in the mountains and forests ②. How can a wealthy family be so proud? Weituo Penglai ④. Linyuan is covered with clear waves, and Linggang is covered with red water. You can dive in Lingxi and climb the ladder⑥ safely. There are proud officials in Qiyuan, and there are wives in Lai. If you advance, you will protect the dragon's view; if you retreat, you will be in trouble with the feudal clan. Walking high in the wind and dust, bowing to Yi Qi.

Sometimes I wallow in Oz's loneliness and wish more people would recognize him.
