My Michael by Amos Oz

My Michael, first published in 1968, established Amos OZ as a major international novelist. A love story set in Jerusalem before the Suez crisis, it tells of Hannah Gonen's marriage to Michael, and her gradual withdrawal from him into a private world of fantasy and suppressed desires.
Born in Jerusalem in 1938, Amos Oz is Israel's finest living writer. 1988 marked the twentieth anniverary of My Michael, which established Oz as a major international novelist, and was later made into a film. His works, which include The Hill of Evil Counsel, In the Land of Israel, A Perfect Peace, Black Box and The Slopes of London, have been translated into many languages and have won several literary awards.
