The Kibbutz Way Of Life

I Often Write About Reconciling. Reconciling, Or Maybe Half-reconciling Between Antagonists, Between People Who Are Deadly Enemies. I Write About Reconciliation, But Not As A Miracle, As A Slow, Gradual Process Of Mutual Discovery - Discovering One Another. I Write About Sad, Sober, Sometimes Heart-breaking Compromises.

I Write In Words. I Don't Write In Sounds Or In Shapes Or In Flavors.

The [political] Left Are People With An Imagination And The Right Are Those Without An Imagination.

Literature Belongs First And Foremost To The Language In Which It Is Being Written.
