"Big Love".

Nili Oz, the widow of the late writer and Israel Prize winner Amos Oz, this morning (Sunday) referred for the first time to the claims of her daughter Galia Oz that she grew up in a violent and sadistic home and that her father even beat her mother in front of her eyes.

"Despite the terrible pain it causes me, I choose not to respond publicly, but only in a matter that concerns me most directly: I have never been a battered woman. Amos has never been beaten. We lived together for almost 60 years with great love and tried our best to give love to all our children. And our grandchildren, "she said.



Yesterday, Galia Oz was interviewed for the Saturday edition of News 12 on the occasion of the promotion of her book "Something that disguises itself as love" and revealed the difficult experiences she went through as a child.

"It was a routine of physical and mental abuse that included swearing, beatings. 'Dirt,' 'Derek,' words like that," she said.

"Compulsive need to control all the time. Humiliation, diminishing value. Disregarding your friends, disregarding what you love. Hurting body image."



Oz further said that her father also beat her mother, at least on one occasion in front of her amazed eyes.

"There is no doubt that the man was violent and he himself admitted it. Although he admitted it in the same letter in which he said other horrible and undermining and false things, but he admitted. So the public debate 'was or was not' ends with this. Amos Oz was a violent person, systematically and throughout. "It's been found, it's his legacy. It's his legacy, too."
