書籍簡介

該書審視了在以色列和世界各地興起的狂熱主義，並對以色列和巴勒斯坦如何達成和平提出了自己的見解。

他認為，許多人攜帶着狂熱的基因。 它始於改變親屬、鄰居、周圍每個人的理想主義衝動。奧茲認為，這種狂熱不僅在以色列流行，而且已經在全世界都蔓延開來。但奧茲並不徹底悲觀，他將政治局勢與契訶夫戲劇進行比較，而不是莎士比亞戲劇。

Amos Oz is one of the foremost writers and thinkers speaking out about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict – this is his attempt to reach out to those on the other side

‘His parting shot at opposing the storm of fanaticism breaking over our times’ Financial Times

Dear Zealots is an essential collection of three essays written out of a sense of urgency, concern, and a belief that a better future is still possible. It touches on the universal nature of fanaticism and its possible cures; the Jewish roots of humanism and the need for a secular pride in Israel; and the geopolitical standing of Israel in the wider Middle East and internationally. 

Amos Oz boldly puts forward his case for a two-state solution in what he calls ‘a question of life and death for the State of Israel’. Wise, provocative, moving and inspiring, these essays illuminate the argument over Israeli, Jewish and human existence, shedding a clear and surprising light on vital political and historical issues, and daring to offer new ways out of a reality that appears to be closed down.

'Concise, evocative... a brilliant book of thoughts and ideas' David Grossman
