"...'Don't Call It Night' is really a novel about 'neglected bougainvillea.' It is about being old enough to glimpse at last one's own death, to see the set stage of one's own final years, and to accept it with only the shortest, politest bursts of an argument. This novel is a piece of sweet but melancholy chamber music--light but not necessarily insubstantial. It belongs to a genre of restful novel that is ruled by an esthetic of peace and a yearning for peace. If one is looking for politics, there is that--clearly, if quietly.Oz, Amos is the author of 'Don't Call It Night' with ISBN 9780156005579 and ISBN 0156005573.
