Part novel and part memoir, Yoel Hoffmann s Moods is flooded with feelings about his family, losses, loves, the soul s hidden powers, old phone books, and life in the Galilee, with its every scent, breeze, notable dog, and odd neighbor. Carrying these shards is a general tenderness accentuated by a new dimension brought along with that great big pill of Prozac. Beautifully translated by Peter Cole, Moods is fiction for lovers of poetry and poetry for lovers of fiction a small marvel of a book, and with its pockets of joy, a curiously cheerful book by an author who once compared himself to a praying mantis inclined to melancholy. ”
