Israel in Exile: Jewish Writing and the Desert
Ranen Omer-Sherman
Examines how the ethical tension between the clashing Mosaic and Davidic paradigms of the desert reverberates in secular Jewish literature and produces literary rewards. This book argues that the ancient encounter with the desert acquires an urgency in response to the crisis brought about by national identities and territorial conflicts.
