Description

David C. Gross (ed); Shraga Weil (il). Poets have been writing in Hebrew since biblical times. One of the oldest tongues known to man, its rich simplicity has inspired poetry whose hallmarks are immediacy & passion. This beautifully illustrated book of over 90 love lyrics translated from the Hebrew is a celebration of this enduring theme. Ranging from The Song of Songs to poetry from modern Israel, there are poems of praise & devotion, of quiet reflection, joyous celebration, carefree humor, & sensuous beauty. The delicate, evocative illustrations by renowned Israeli artist Shraga Weil are the perfect complement to the works they accompany. Gross is editor of The Jewish Week of N.Y., America’s largest Jewish newspaper.
