 ‘His parting shot at opposing the storm of fanaticism breaking over our times’ Financial Times

Dear Zealots is an essential collection of three essays written out of a sense of urgency, concern, and a belief that a better future is still possible. It touches on the universal nature of fanaticism and its possible cures; the Jewish roots of humanism and the need for a secular pride in Israel; and the geopolitical standing of Israel in the wider Middle East and internationally.

Amos Oz boldly puts forward his case for a two-state solution in what he calls ‘a question of life and death for the State of Israel’. Wise, provocative, moving and inspiring, these essays illuminate the argument over Israeli, Jewish and human existence, shedding a clear and surprising light on vital political and historical issues, and daring to offer new ways out of a reality that appears to be closed down.

'Concise, evocative... a brilliant book of thoughts and ideas' David Grossman

Amos Oz, jedan od najznačajnijih savremenih izraelskih pisaca, rođen je kao Amos Klausner 1939. u Jeruzalemu. Odrastao je u Jeruzalemu u Ulici Amos u četvrti Kerem Avraham, u kojoj je smještena radnja najvećeg broja njegovih romana. Jedan je od prvih Izraelaca koji je zagovarao rješavanje izraelsko- palestinskog sukoba nakon Šestodnevnog rata. Učinio je to još 1967. u članku “Zemlja naših predaka” u novinama Davar. Njegova prva zbirka priča Gdje šakali zavijaju izlazi 1965, a prvi roman Možda drugdje 1966. Do sada je objavio tridesetak knjiga priča, romana i eseja, među kojima se posebno ističu Moj Michael, Crna kutija, Priča o ljubavi i tmini... Dobitnik je niza prestižnih nagrada – Izraelske nagrade za književnost, Mirovne nagrade njemačkih izdavača i knjižara, Goetheove nagrade grada Frankfurta, Nagrade Franz Kafka i mnogih drugih važnih svjetskih nagrada i priznanja.
