The Poet Remains Silent
General Fiction诗人继续沉默
(israel) Abraham Yehoshua
"The Poet Remains Silent" contains twelve novels by Abraham Yehoshua, an important contemporary Israeli writer. The stories are all set in contemporary Israeli society, sometimes in cities, sometimes on battlefields, sometimes in remote mountain villages, sometimes completely confined to families, always creating the bizarre from the commonplace. In these fictional worlds, even small actions can be paralyzed. Yehoshua's narrative is slow and detailed, immersing the reader in a cold-toned allegorical dreamland, outlining various emotions in Israeli society - which invariably point to loneliness.
