Recensioner i media

"Countries need writers as their voices of conscience; few have them. Israel has Oz" Washington Post "One of the greatest prose writers in contemporary fiction" The Times "Amos Oz is a great writer because he tells stories about real people in a way that no one else can" -- Alan Sillitoe "He has that mixture of lyrical intensity, utter seriousness and capacity for describing life in a few words which characterises some of the best Russian authors" -- Melvyn Bragg "There are times when you are reminded what it means to be in the presence of a genius...with Amos Oz you have to add wisdom and hope too" Scotsman
