"This book represents an anthology of Avigdor Hameiri's ten most compelling war stories and poetry. His war stories are unique, and different from his Hebrew writer contemporaries in that they mix the supernatural and macabre with war, pogroms, and antisemitism. These stories and poems reflect like no other the unique complexity of the Jewish soldier's experience of the most vicious and shocking war the world had witnessed to date - the battles, the agony, the dilemmas faced by the Jewish soldier, bravery versus cowardice, the notion of imminent death, breaking the sixth commandment (Thou Shalt Not Kill), elements of pacifism (particularly involving camaraderie between the common soldiers on both sides of the battlefield and their shared hatred for rank), and more"--

This book represents an anthology of Avigdor Hameiri’s ten most compelling war stories and poetry. They are unique in mixing the supernatural and macabre with war, pogroms, and antisemitism, and reflect the unique complexity of the Jewish soldier’s experience of the most vicious war the world had yet witnessed to date.



“[ A] gripping mix of stories and poems… interwoven with moments of quiet, affecting beauty… This remarkable work rescues an important 20th-century Israeli voice from obscurity.” — Publishers Weekly

This book represents an anthology of Avigdor Hameiri’s ten most compelling war stories and poetry. His war stories are unique, and different from his Hebrew writer contemporaries in that they mix the supernatural and macabre with war, pogroms, and antisemitism. These stories and poems reflect like no other the unique complexity of the Jewish soldier’s experience of the most vicious and shocking war the world had witnessed to date — the battles, the agony, the dilemmas faced by the Jewish soldier, bravery versus cowardice, the notion of imminent death, breaking the sixth commandment (Thou Shalt Not Murder), elements of pacifism (particularly involving camaraderie between the common soldiers on both sides of the battlefield and their shared hatred for rank), and more.


Recenzijas

With a deeply unsettling narrative voice, Hameiri entangles the real and the fantastic, blurring boundaries between sense and madness in the absurdity of war. Many of the stories seek to understand how the conditions of war not only command killing, but also annihilate compassion and human feeling. Hameiris use of word play, repetition, and disturbing metaphors sketch the horrors of war, both the physical and mental traumas. Chilling and unforgettable, Hameiris fiction and poetry is deserving of a much wider audiencethose interested in war writing, Jewish literature, and international modernisms.
