Acerca de este título
All around them, tension crackles in the air. Long stretches of boredom and black humor are punctuated by flashes of terror. And the threat of death is constant. But in their stony haven, Erez and his soldiers have created their own little world, their own rules, their own language. And here Erez listens to his men build castles out of words, telling stories, telling lies, talking incessantly of women, sex, and dead comrades. Until, in the final days of the occupation, Erez and his squad of fed-up, pissed-off, frightened young soldiers are given one last order: a mission that will shatter all remaining illusions - and stand as a testament to the universal, gut-wrenching futility of war.
By turns subversive and darkly comic, brutal and tender, Ron Leshem's debut novel is an international literary sensation, winner of Israel's top award for literature, and the basis for a prizewinning film.

"This is a picture of war from a soldier's point of view. Its language is crude, the body count rises, and yet the tenderness of the bonds among the men is extraordinary....An important novel." (Library Journal)
Reseñas editoriales
This absolutely stunning and powerful tale of war, told from an Israeli soldier's perspective, is a moving commentary on the human condition and the brutality of warfare. Though a surprising choice for this narrator, given the subject matter, Dick Hill offers a compelling narration so believable it's scary. His voice shifts to a slight Israeli accent, and his characters are so true and well rounded that the listener gets the impression these conversations are the real thing. Hill excels in every aspect of his delivery - his voice is rich and coarse, his pronunciation flawless. This enthralling and absorbing story will resonate for months afterward in the listener's mind.
