I need your help. With new threats on the Northern border, antisemitism hatred of Israel every increasing, it's easy to fall into despair. Many of you know that a friend Adriana Folberg-Blum and I organize a bus down to the Gaza Envelope every Thursday to help the farmers. What you may not know (I myself wouldn't have if Lawrence Feldman hadn't alerted me) is that the book I published in 2020 was listed as one of 10 books to read before visiting Israel. It's an honor for sure, but what's more important to me now is to share the spectacular sides of this tiny country of ours. There's a whole lot of that in Angels & Tahina. So, I'm seeking your ideas for any of the following: social influencers, connections to book clubs, communities, podcasts, etc. who might be interested. A strong theme running throughout is resilience and hope, which are both badly needed during this period where uncertainty and chaos loom. Please, please, please post below any thoughts you have.
From walking companions of the practical and literary kinds to a cookbook, a kids' book and beautiful prose, these books will enrich your visit to Israel.
