Menuha Nehona, originally published in Israel in1982and released in Brazil only in 2010under the title Uma certa paz, the internationally acclaimed book by Amos Oz, focuses on the interval between the years1965and 1967, immediately prior to the Six Days War that modified the State of Israel in a radical way. It was after this war that Israel developed a craving for the occupied territories and began to use military force as a means of achieving them. Violence and confrontation between the characters themselves and the society provides ethical questions that go beyond the thematic plane, being present in building strategies of the novel, culminating in polyphony, which is more elaborate and radically evident in Oz’s posterior novel A caixa preta.
