Summary
An anthology of poetry by the late Israeli poet offers meditative, lyrical, and playful observations on the language of love, Jerusalem, beauty, and the Jewish experience. Reprint.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: In poems marked by tenderness and mischief, humanity and humor, Yehuda Amichai breaks open the grand diction of revered Jewish verses and casts the light of his own experiÂence upon them. Here he tells of history, a nation, the self, love, and resurrection. Amichaiâs last volume is one of mediÂtation and hope, and stands as a testament to one of Israelâs greatest poets.
