Descrizione
Shaul is a mature, distinguished man. Yet despite the overwhelming evidence that his family members, friends and the media present to the contrary, he does not accept that his childhood friend, Gideon, was killed in a suicide bombing, but rather that he is alive and well and in hiding. Shaul refuses to believe his wife, Mira, or Gideon’s wife, Stella, whom he once courted unsuccessfully.
The Black Sun takes place during the difficult days of the Second Intifada in Israel in 2002. As Shaul takes to walking the streets of Tel Aviv in search of his friend, memories of his youth begin to surface, from when he was a new immigrant from Poland, having just arrived in the first Jewish city.
"Once again, Amnon Rubinstein displays tremendous skill in creating a story within a story that is based on a reality and intertwines with the world of imagination. The real and fantastic are woven together beautifully and his precise language flows smoothly. Once more Rubinstein captures our hearts with his faithful words."
- Aharon Appelfeld, author and winner of the Israel Prize for literature
