homage to athens and jerusalem, 28 Aug 2007
By Eric Maroney - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Death in the Rain: A Novel (Red Crane Literature) (Paperback)
Death in the Rain is really homage to an overall eastern Mediterranean aesthetic: the novel jumps among the prospective of four characters between Greece and Israel, who communicate to the reader in a series of letters, journal entries, and in one case, editorial interpolations. This creates a complex but interesting narrative, full of small but rewarding surprises. The translation is also marvelously wrought: Almog has a keen eye for the detail of flora, color, texture and smell in Israel and Greece, and it shows through in the remarkably elevated tone of the English translation. In fact, Israel and Greece, the two cornerstones of Western Civilizations, are really being played out here through the emotional entanglements of friends and lovers -- and to great effect.
