9781948017558. New condition. Trade paperback. Language: English. Pages: 110. Trade paperback (US). Glued binding. 110 p. Poetry. Jewish Studies. The vibrant portraits of Israel and Jewish life described here are brought to life by an accurate and clear poetic language that is always a pleasure to read, although often frightening in its journalistic accounts of everyday conflicts and persecution. Although I stem from the other side of the political spectrum, there is much beauty to be experienced and much to be learned from Steven Sher's poems. They speak a truth that is often beautiful and sometimes terrible to process, but always essential to know.--Professor Karen Alkalay-Gut
