The calamity of October 7th and the war that followed, had left Israel and the Jewish world in shock and despair. The unimaginable became our reality. As more details of the horror unfold, as we are facing the painful daily losses in battle and above all the plight of the hostages and their families, we find ourselves less and less able to talk about it. The expression most commonly used is אין מילים ein milim – No Words! And yet – there are those who struggle and find words to express pain and anger, despair and abandonment.

Rachel Korazim will read and discuss poetry written these very days. The poems are often raw and painful, while at the same time full of love and even hope.
