Israel: Voices From Within

"This unusual anthology of Hebrew poetry offers a vivid perspective on the whole Zionist project, from its inception toward the end of the nineteenth century to its contemporary realization in all its fraught problems, including minority and dissident voices. Many readers will be grateful for the facing Hebrew texts, and all should appreciate the helpful notes, which illuminate the cultural and historical reference of the poems. --Robert Alter, PhD, celebrated translator of The Hebrew Bible: A Translation with Commentary
