Book Description
This poetic collection is an honest and deeply reflective look at life overshadowed by disputed settlements and political upheaval in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Yonatan Berg is a poet from Israel and the youngest person ever awarded the Yehuda Amichai Poetry Prize. This collection brings together the best poems from his three published collections in Hebrew, deftly translated by Joanna Chen. His poetry recounts his upbringing on an Israeli settlement in the West Bank, and service in a combat unit of the Israeli military, which left him with post-traumatic stress disorder. He grapples with questions of religion and tradition, nationalism, war, and familial relationships. The book also explores his conceptual relationship with Biblical, historical, and literary characters from the history of civilization, set against a backdrop of the Mediterranean landscape. Berg shares an insider's perspective on life in Israel today.

Light’s Battered Edge
Author: Diane Sahms-Guarnieri
Publisher: Anaphora Literary Press
ISBN: 168114218X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
“The familiar Gospel song may reassure us that, ‘His eye is on the sparrow,’ but for those at the battered edges of our society, too often it doesn’t seem that way. Here, Diane Sahms-Guarnieri catches sight of ‘a sparrow by its own forgotten self,’ and that sparrow stands in for other ‘forgotten’ ones: the homeless, the wrecked, the ill, a family of forebears ‘visited’ by comprehensive Job-like ‘Misery.’ Even as she shows us ‘light’s battered edges,’ however, Sahms-Guarnieri makes us sharply aware of ‘life playing/ disharmoniously and harmoniously’: love so close it’s ‘like being safely snug inside/ the lining of another’s skin’; earth itself surrendering ‘to each/ sunset’ ‘in a thankful swaying sort of way’; a soul snatched up animistically, ‘lifting, lifting, lifting into light.’ These compelling poems leave us disquieted, as much by beauty as by sorrow.” —Nathalie F. Anderson, Author of Quiver; Professor, Swarthmore College “Think of the spirit of place as the frame of memory shaping language, of the perpetual soliloquy of being who you are in counterpoint with echoing phrases others have uttered at or to you, and you will have some idea of the chant and enchantment of the poems gathered in Light’s Battered Edge. There are some hard truths in these poems—about abusive spouses, about the wear and tear of caring for others. But underlying it all is the sense of what love really means.” —Frank Wilson, Books, Inq.; The Epilogue
