Title: Life and Death in Four Rhymes - Amos Oz - 2009 - book

Summary :

When a great writer can't stay focused while on stage at a cultural center during an event organized in his honor, things risk getting out of hand. He anticipates the audience's questions, so predictable, so boring. So why not let his mind wander, his gaze wander around the room? Seize the silhouettes and faces glimpsed in order to invent a destiny, a biography, or simply a little love story? But the game is dangerous, and reality is brought back to our writer's memory through the voice of Rochale Reznik, who reads with disturbing sensitivity excerpts from his latest book... The plot of Life and Death in Four Rhymes is dense, entertaining, and full of twists and turns, but above all, it contains a very melancholic reflection on the difficult coexistence of the public and private spheres, and on the misunderstandings that inevitably threaten the writer, even more so if he is famous. The biting irony of the text seems to warn us against an overly serious interpretation of all readings, however Amos Oz will perhaps never have affirmed with such brilliance the necessity of the imagination and the power of literature.
