"Requiem for Naaman" is a novel by Israeli writer Benjamin Tammuz, first published in Hebrew in 1989. The story revolves around a man named Naaman Diller, a former Israeli intelligence agent who has retired to a small village in Italy to escape his past.
One day, Naaman receives a letter from an old colleague that leads him to believe that he is being hunted by his former employers. As he tries to unravel the mystery behind the letter and the threat it poses to him, Naaman is forced to confront the traumatic events of his past and come to terms with the choices he has made.
Through Naaman's journey, Tammuz explores themes of identity, memory, and the price of betrayal. The novel is also a meditation on the complex relationship between Israel and Europe, as well as the impact of the Holocaust on the Jewish psyche.
"Requiem for Naaman" is a beautifully written and suspenseful novel that delves deep into the inner world of its protagonist, while also grappling with larger issues of history, politics, and human nature.
