Description
In this winsome novel, Amos Oz returns to the Jerusalem of his youth during the wanting days of the British mandate. The book is the story of Proffi, a 12-year-old who dreams of dying in battle, who becomes like "an excited panther in the basement, seething with oaths and vows, knowing exactly . . . to what he will dedicate his life . . ". But when his comrades accuse him of treason for his friendship with Sergeant Dunlop--a fat, good-natured British soldier--Proffi must ponder the meaning of loyalty.
