This book deals with films adapted from six
literary works written by central modern Israeli writers: He Walked
Through the Fields by Moshe Shamir, “Three
Days and a Child” by A.B. Yehoshua,
My Michael by Amos Oz, “Atalia” by Yitzhak
Ben Ner, The Smile of the Lamb by David
Grossman and The Lover by A.B. Yehoshua. The comparison between the
books and the films sheds light on the specific features of the two media,
on the different histories of both literature and cinema in Israel and on
the thematics and poetics of the six books and
films.
