The City I Run From: Poems of Tel Aviv

This collection explores being rooted in, yet estranged from, an adopted city. As an English-language poet in Tel Aviv, the city - in its profound complexity - permeates the personal aspects of the poet’s life, in terms of language, friendship, grief, joy, and motherhood. These lyric poems depict Tel Aviv as a home that informs the poet’s identity, one that she both resists and embraces.
