Caught between them is one small boy with the weight of generations on his shoulders. And at the tragic heart of the tale is the suicide of his mother, when Amos was twelve-and-a-half years old.

Oz's story dives into 120 years of family history and paradox, the saga of a Jewish love-hate affair with Europe that sweeps from Vilna and Odessa, via Poland and Prague, to Israel.

I found this book a marvelous one. Oz is a great writer with a memorable style. I would heartily reccomend this, in spite of the fact that it is not an easy read....but well worth reading.
