Jerusalem's built texture of its neighborhoods, streets, and houses is the backdrop for Amos Oz's autobiographical story, from the end of the Mandate, the days of the War of Independence and the siege, the early years of the city to later chapters in the city's history. Amos Oz's Jerusalem book casts a visual reference spotlight on some 100 milestones, Accompanied by hundreds of enlightening drawings, along the urban routes of Oz across Jerusalem, many of which are not part of the usual tourist routes and are therefore known but few. It is another Jerusalem - a rainbow city, wrinkle-and-contrast, which, along with its historical and religious charm, suffers from political rifts, demographic and social problems, and physical wrangling in some of its parts. The itineraries allow pedestrians or those in the armchair to know more about the places where things have also happened in the city since the end of the Mandate to the present. The book illustrates Oz's curiosity and contemplation, as well as his visual sensitivity and pictorial skill in describing urban and architectural motifs, Representing the spirit of the time, and to many of which is symbolic of the Jerusalem being of his life history. The book is accompanied by an introduction by Peña Oz-Salzberger and later by Haim Beer: "The Land of Amos Oz." "Jerusalem that was lost to my father is the subject of this spectacular book, whose power in its design and beauty, in its authoritative love of the city and the books ... His Jerusalem is now only ours, and this book's gift remains to its residents and lovers and lovers. Only here, among the pages, can you To feel that neighborhood of Kerem Abraham, that Talpiot and its streets and that rat. There is no end to longing for those places ... "- From the introductory words: Peña Oz-Salzberger.
