Details: Product description In 1939, as the Germans advance in Poland, Elisha Pomerantz, a small Jewish watchmaker with a passion for mathematics and music, escapes into the forest, leaving behind his beautiful and intelligent wife Stefa. Stefa doesn't realize the danger, but when the situation worsens, she shuts herself up at home, then she too is overwhelmed by the storm of war. Elisha, after having wandered through the European woods, arrives first in Greece and then in Israel, where he finds refuge in a small kibbutz, and silently goes back to repairing watches, looking for music in mathematics and mathematics in music. Stefa, on the other hand, deported to the Soviet Union, is forced to become a Stalinist spy. And they dream of seeing each other again. "Touch the water, touch the wind" is an unusual novel for Amos Oz. Veined with magical realism, rich in symbols and philosophical speculations, at times mysterious, with moments of great sweetness, it tells of the escape of the Jews from European extermination.
