Lavie Tidhar Pořadí knih (chronologicky)

Adama ist Familien- und Generationen-Roman, chronique scandaleuse von Israel, Polit-Thriller und Kriminalroman. Ein mitreißendes historisches Epos über Liebe und Verrat, Gewalt und Tod, über Loyalität und Behauptungswille. 1946 beginnt die junge Ruth, sich in Palästina ein neues Leben aufzubauen, getrieben von jugendlichen Idealen in einem Land, das ihr feindlich gesinnt ist. Sie ist eine ungarische Zionistin, die, anders als die meisten Mitglieder ihrer Familie, den Nazis in Budapest entkommen konnte. Ruth wird das Herz des Kibbuz Trashim, und für sie ist der Kibbuz heilig, heilige Erde, also »Adama«, seine Existenz ist ihre Lebensaufgabe. Wenn dafür knallharte Entscheidungen nötig sind, dann wird sie sie treffen, inklusive Gewalt und Mord. Wir folgen Ruth und den Ihren durch die Jahre 1945 bis 2009. Und damit durch die Turbulenzen des Staates Israel – die Auseinandersetzung mit den Briten, die Vertreibung der Araber, der Sechs-Tage-Krieg und der Jom-Kippur-Krieg machen Ruth womöglich noch zäher und härter. Neben dem Porträt einer beeindruckenden Frauenfigur und ihrer Familie, schreibt Lavie Tidhar auch die Gewaltgeschichte Israels fort.

With her comrades, her fellow kibbutzniks, she will build a better world. There will be green grass, orange trees and pomegranates, a land that is their own and no one else's. So they till their fields, dig their wells, build their homes and forge a new way of living, fiercely proud of their shared pursuit of a dream.
