Summary:The poems wrestle with God, spiritual practice, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the place of a poet's work in society, the relationship between masculinity and femininity, and the baggage of tradition borne by the Hebrew language itself. Spanning Kosman's thirty-twoyear career, the book contains selections from the nine volumes of poetry he has published in Hebrew, and it brings them to English-speaking readers for the first time in translations by Lisa Katz with assistance from Shlomit Naim-Naor.
