Written with understated eleoquence and shot through with deep humanity, Levi ranges from young love to political savagery in this, one of his most famous works.

It is wonderful pure, and beautifully translated...I was deeply impressed." -Saul Bellow

"A work of healing, of tranquil, even buoyant imagination." -"The New York Times Book Review"
