Items related to The Lover (Harvest in Translation)
A husband's search for his wife's lover, lost amidst the turbulence of the Yom Kippur war, is the heart of this dreamlike novel. Writing from the widely different perspectives of the main characters, Yehoshua manages to capture both modern-day Israel and its ancient past in addition to creating intensely human protagonists. Critical of Israeli society and the way in which Zionism has been distorted, this novel was both highly controversial and a spectacular best-seller in Israel, bringing international acclaim to its remarkable author.

Review:
Yehoshua’s psychological novel is complex and fascinating, his voices – distinct and striking – represent more than themselves. -- Publishers Weekly
[Yehoshua] is a writer who exhibits the rigorous fidelity to his own perceptions that produces real originality. -- New York Times
one of Israel’s world-class writers -- Saul Bellow

The Lover was A.B. Yehoshua's first novel and immediately brought him international recognition. It is brilliant, compassionate, and highly original, and as accomplished as all his later works.
