Judas, by Amos Oz

Pressestimmen

"Pensive, sometimes even brooding novel by Oz, widely considered Israel's greatest living writer. If there had been no Judas, there would have been no crucifixion and no Christianity. Should Christians—and Jesus, for that matter—be grateful to Judas, then? This question and a host of related queries resound through the halls of Gershom Wald's Jerusalem apartment, its floors groaning under the burden of books and memories. Shmuel Ash is a bit more than a shlimazel, but he's had a run of bad luck all the same: his parents' business has failed, meaning that his allowance has disappeared, and meanwhile his girlfriend has gone off and married someone else. Apart from burying himself in a thesis on Jewish views of Jesus, what else can he do? Well, for one thing, he can fall in love with the sizzling widow who also lives in Wald's place, where Shmuel has been taken on as a kind of live-in intellectual foil. Why Atalia lives there requires some ferreting out, and suffice it to say that her presence involves echoes of betrayal, perceived or real: 'They called him a traitor,' says Wald of still another shadowy presence in that darkened, bookish house, 'because he fraternized with Arabs.' Oz does not overwork what could be an oppressive and too-obvious theme, and he is the equal of Kundera in depicting the kind of love that is accompanied more by sighs of impatience and reproval than of desire satisfied. One thing is for sure: just as Judas is foreordained to betray Jesus, Shmuel is destined to fall for Atalia; even the cynical, world-weary Wald allows that he should surrender to her: 'You no longer have any choice.' Naturally, the ending isn't quite happy—we would not be in the land of Oz otherwise—but it is perfectly consonant with the story leading to it. Lovely, though with a doleful view of the possibilities of peace, love, and understanding, whether among nations or within households."—Kirkus "Through the story of one young man at a crossroads, Oz presents thought-provoking ideas about traitors, a moving lament for the cost of Israeli-Arab conflict, and a heartfelt call for compassion."—Publishers Weekly"Oz raises fundamental questions concerning Israeli politics, religion, ethics, and history in this novel about a young Jewish scholar adrift in 1959 Jerusalem. Graduate student Shmuel Ash decides to abandon his studies and perhaps leave Jerusalem; when his parents can no longer support him, his girlfriend marries her ex-boyfriend, and even his Socialist discussion group breaks up. Answering an advertisement for a live-in companion in an old Jerusalem neighborhood, Shmuel finds a welcome retreat in the home of Gershom Wald, a 70-year-old retired schoolteacher suffering from an unnamed degenerative disease. Gershom’s primary caregiver is his son’s widow, Atalia, and Shmuel’s job consists mainly in providing Gershom with spirited debate. The old man’s favorite topic—the formation of the state of Israel—proves somewhat sensitive in that Atalia’s father, David Ben-Gurion opponent Shealtiel Abravanel, had opposed the idea of establishing a Jewish state without first addressing Arab concerns adequately, a position for which he was deemed a traitor. Gershom and Shmuel also discuss the famous traitor that Shmuel has been studying, Judas Iscariot. As Shmuel researches Abravanel and Judas, Oz (A Tale of Love and Darkness) suggests each might be less a traitor than an idealist with an alternate point of view. Oz’s appreciation for multiple perspectives underlies powerful descriptions of Judas at the crucifixion, the brutal murder of Atalia’s husband’s during Israel’s War of Independence, and Shmuel with Atalia at King David’s tomb. Through the story of one young man at a crossroads, Oz presents thought-provoking ideas about traitors, a moving lament for the cost of Israeli-Arab conflict, and a heartfelt call for compassion."—Publishers Weekly "A scintillating novel...Many-layered, thought-provoking and – in its love story – delicate as a chrysalis, this is an old-fashioned novel of ideas that is strikingly and compellingly modern."—The Guardian "Oz (Between Friends, 2014, etc.), widely considered Israel's greatest living writer...is the equal of Kundera in depicting the kind of love that is accompanied more by sighs of impatience and reproval than of desire satisfied.

Naturally, the ending isn't quite happy—we would not be in the land of Oz otherwise—but it is perfectly consonant with the story leading to it. Lovely, though with a doleful view of the possibilities of peace, love, and understanding, whether among nations or within households."—Kirkus "The novel gives a finely vivid and sympathetic picture of a Jerusalem (and an Israel) that has largely disappeared…This book is compassionate as well as painfully provocative, a contribution to some sort of deeper listening to the dissonances emerging from deep within the politics and theology of Israel and Palestine.”—New Statesman"Pensive, sometimes even brooding novel by Oz, widely considered Israel's greatest living writer.

Klappentext

The great new novel by Amos Oz, his first full-length work since the best-selling A Tale of Love and Darkness  Jerusalem, 1959. Shmuel Ash, a biblical scholar, is adrift in his young life when he finds work as a caregiver for a brilliant but cantankerous old man named Gershom Wald. There is, however, a third, mysterious presence in his new home. Atalia Abravanel, the daughter of a deceased Zionist leader, a beautiful woman in her forties, entrances young Shmuel even as she keeps him at a distance. Piece by piece, the old Jerusalem stone house, haunted by tragic history and now home to the three misfits and their intricate relationship, reveals its secrets. At once an exquisite love story and a coming-of-age novel, Judas offers a surprising perspective on the state of Israel and the biblical tale from which it draws its title. This is Amos OzÂ’s most powerful novel in decades. Â

Ein hervorragendes Buch

Also ich bin zugegebenermassen etwas jüdisch-affin, da ich einige Zeit in Israel gelebt habe, deshalb habe ich das Buch gerne gelesen. Die Handlung ist ok. und man findet auch das eine oder andere geschichtliche Thema. Wer aber auf Spannung steht, der liegt mit diesem Buch jedoch eindeutig falsch.

Amos Oz is one of the greatest writers alive today, if not THE greatest living writer. So everything he writes is worth reading, and "Judas" is no exception. He carries on the family tradition (his great-uncle was the renowned scholar Joseph Klausner) of trying to puzzle out, from a modern Jewish perspective, the life and death of Jesus of Nazareth. But that is only one of the strands in this story. Oz was born Amos Klausner in 1939. His mother, whom he adored, was a transplant from eastern Europe who could not adapt to the new and very challenging environment of what was then Mandate Palestine. She sank deeper and deeper into despair and killed herself when he was 12 years old. His father was academic and emotionally remote. Young Amos at 15 left home for a kibbutz and changed his name to Oz, which in Hebrew means "strength." It was a time when young Jews in Israel took up Hebrew surnames, leaving the western surnames and wishing not separate themselves culturally from a Europe that had betrayed them. But the family genius is alive and well in Amos Oz, and his book "Judas" is, like everything else he writes, not only worth reading, but a "must read" for any intelligent person. The story has many layers and the reader must bring something to it; nonetheless, the book is more than worth the effort.

As always with Amos Oz, beautiful writing, interesting ideas, some of which challenge many of our standard ideas. The concept is interesting; a Jew writing his doctoral thesis about the Jewish concept of Judas. It's also about conflicting ideas during the founding of Israel and what exactly the Zionist dream encompassed. On top of all that is the amazing writing. I know Jerusalem well and Oz captures the feel of winter in that city. I felt as if I was there. I highly recommend this book.

Review of Judas by Amos Oz, reviewed by Jerry WoolpyWhat if the losers wrote minority opinions on history? Judas is historical fiction to this effect. Jesus was a prophetic Jew peaching in the Galilee, as we all know. Judas, also Jewish, was a true believer in Jesus, who wanted to expand Jesus’ horizons to the cultural center in Jerusalem. Ben Gurion was blind to the inevitable future of armed conflict with the vast Arab majority in the Middle East. And so Jews have suffered, Christians have suffered, Muslims of suffered, lands have been fought over, and people have been persecuted unmercifully. Amos Oz has created three fictional characters who review what happened and speculate how it could have been different. Oz lived through the history in question in 1959 and so did I. The book is of interest because it is a good story narrated by an ABD grad student who studied the history of Jews and Christians starting with Judah. He gives up on his thesis and joins two woe begotten Israelis who got the brunt of this history. Though Netanyahu and Putin are not mentioned in the book, Bibi was 10 and Vladimir was 7 at the time, their ruthless characters are reflected in what happened and are part of the endless conflict that continues today.

Stylistically, Judas is claustraphobically heavy carefully wrought with its repetitive phrasing, descriptions of routine and recurrence to bring the reader into the cave-like prison where the battle of ideas struggle like wrestlers locked in implacable combat. In some ways the novel seemed to be a micro-mirror of Mann's Magic Mountain--the wide open space of Davos shrunken to a dark shuttered place. While Hans Castorp goes to visit the tubercular Joachim and is witness to the ongoing arguments between Settembrini and Naphta and is beguiled by Clavdia, the asthmatic Schmuel is caught up in an equally impassioned argument on the the unsolvable interlock of the Israeli-Arab situation. Oz's passionate preference for the two-state solution--now seemingoly impossible-- is clear. But I recall that Castorp leaves Davos presumably to join the army at the outset of World War 1, and what will be Shmuel's future and fate is unknowable. I think this is not only Oz's masterpiece but a major literary achievement of our time.

Judas is a deep intellectual discourse on the realization of the Zionist vision at one level. The three living characters inhabit a real and metaphorical house on the edge of the pre six day war divided Jerusalem. Having lived there at that time, and written a novel about it, I can attest to its powerful depiction by Oz. Two of the characters cling to the Ben Gurion line. The other adheres to her father's view that a unique Jewish state was an existential error. A revisionist view of Judas, as Jesus' only true disciple, is woven into the story. All three characters are deftly drawn and memorable. Like the house they exist on the tenuous border of their Society. Sheldon Greene,latest novel, The Seed Apple
