Israel's literary giant, Amos Oz (1939-2018) was one of that country's bestselling and most prolific writers, capturing the characters and culture of the young state in novels such as My Michael, Judas, Black Box, The Same Sea and many others. Part patriot and part prophet, he also penned provocative essays and nonfiction works such as Jews and Words and In the Land of Israel and his acclaimed memoir A Tale of Love and Darkness.
