  Amos Oz is a leading figure in the Peace Now movement. After the Six Day War in 1967, he was one of the first voices in Israel to advocate partitioning the land between Israel and the Palestinian state in the context of peace and security. This collection of essays brings together his thoughts on Israel's offensive into Lebanon, on fanaticism, the PLO, Jewish terrorists, Arafat and the political, religious and ethnic tensions within his nation. He explores Jewish attitudes towards themselves and non-Jews and he re-examines the Holocaust and Zionism - its dreams and its failures.
