David Grossman: Lion's Honey
The fifth book, the Song of Lions, where leading writers from around the world re-represented in modern terms the diverse places, the different times and the different myths. The book, which describes Samson's new narrative of the Bible, gives a sharp commentary on the physical style, the rich metaphor and symbols, the human nature. The Israeli modern literary giant David Grossman ventures off his "hero" tent and paints a life journey of suffering from the same uncomfortable soul hidden in it. A man with a deep, painful, violent urge is deeply impressed by the way he looks at the human body.
