They Spoke in Their Tongue

“They Spoke in Their Tongue” deals with these questions and more, while presenting an extensive research on Yehoshua Kenaz, one the greatest Israeli writers.
Naama Tsal offers an index for the rare poetics of Kenaz using philosophical reading in literature, proposing to think about the absence that is imprinted in the heart of Kenaz’s perception of another person, about poetics of partial deafness, and about embedding areas of blindness inside one’s field of vision.

“Deserves every praise. This is undoubtedly a discussion that all future writers on Kenaz’s work will turn back to”. (Prof. Michael Glusman, Tel Aviv University).
