Baron emigrated to Palestine in 1910, wrote in Yiddish and Hebrew, yet her stories were not set in her new home but in the world of the East European shtetl. Themes in her short stories are marriage, divorce, death or birth but giving the Jewish woman a voice. Kaddish, Sister or Burying the books are critiques of misogyny in traditional Jewish communities. I loved that Baron‘s Torah and Talmud knowledge shaped her literary work. In the beginning

Anna40 marks the passing of time (summer, fall, winter) with the Torah portions read throughout the year. Baron‘s prose is well crafted, the translations by Seidman and Kronfeld are a pleasure to read. (edited) 6d

Check out the gorgeous book covers my spouse got me for Christmas! He wrapped them around library books he got from deep in my TBR list, as is our tradition (the library books...the book covers are a new thing). I'm told there are a bunch more coming in, but so far, I have the tagged, plus Tailchaser's Song by Tad Williams and Haven by Emma Donoghue. Perfect for #ReadOutTheOld!

Tamra Gorgeous! 7d
LiteraryinPA What a clever gift! 6d

ImperfectCJ @MaleficentBookDragon I think these are the Charlie & Fox fabric dust jacket. They fit beautifully. 5d

I‘ve been absent for a long time… this has been what has pulled me. I‘m attempting to learn Hebrew!
I‘ve been in a different place since I had surgery again this past November. Cancer has been difficult to battle and my latest chemo treatment has been by far the worst. So distracting myself with something complicated has been good for me. I miss everyone and this community so I‘m going to try to get to being active again, 💕📚💕

Tamra 🤗 Wow, I admire your resilience and patience. 💪🏾💪🏾 11mo
SamAnne Wishing you a strong recovery. Cancer is a life changer. I‘m in remission after surgery/radiation but declined chemo for time being to soak in a year of travel and living life to the fullest against doctor advice. New scans next month when I return from Mexico! Good for you learning Hebrew! I plan tackle Spanish in 2024 to keep positive thoughts about returning to Mexico in 2025, I suspect Hebrew is a bit more challenging. 😳😁 11mo

Nili,the daughter of an archaeologist,thinks she can find the Ark of the Covenant,too bad it‘s no longer on Israeli territory.With the help of clever Gedanken & his hilltop youths,businessman Abuloff who buys artefacts from Isis,the IDF&2 Palestinians, she digs a tunnel that will hopefully lead to the Ark before her brother& Prof Sarid,the bad guy,get to it first. Modan published this before October 7,during the pandemic. Funny&thought-provoking.
