We have to meet here because the threat-management company she’s hired since the release of her memoir, "Dream Catcher," decreed no interviews at her home, in an undisclosed suburb, to which she, her opera-singer husband and 7-year-old son recently moved for safety reasons. "There are lots of crazies out there," she says, referring to those young men, like assassins Marc David Chapman and John Hinckley, whose "love" for her father J.D. Salinger’s "Catcher in the Rye" - they both carried around dog-eared copies - veers beyond that of a normal fan to a "just touch the hem of his garment and be healed" obsession. "This is not my father’s fault," she continues. "If you’re going to capture the borderline aspects of adolescence brilliantly, you’re going to capture an audience of a borderline group of guys. It becomes a problem when they respond to [the novel] at 30 the way they did at 17."

A stone rests on my desk with the word "Amen" written on it. It is a piece of a tomb, a vestige from a Jewish cemetery destroyed a thousand years ago, in the city where I was born. One word, "Amen," is cut deep into the stone—

back Theology for Atheists Yehuda Amichai's Poetry of Paradox an appreciation by Stephen Kessler Open Closed Open by Yehuda Amichai translated by Chana Bloch and Chana Kronfeld (Harcourt (2000), 184 pages, $25)] Whether or not the Israelis and Palestinians ever get together on a peace deal, my pick for the Nobel Prize in literature would have been Yehuda Amichai. Israel's poet laureate died on Friday, September 22, 2000 after a long illness. He was 76. Amichai, his books translated into 37 languages beyond the original Hebrew, has long been one of the planet's preeminent poets. The evidence in English is abundant, most notably up to now in two substantial volumes: The Selected Poetry of Yehuda Amichai Yehuda Amichai: A Life of Poetry 1948-1994 , translated by Benjamin and Barbara Harshav (HarperCollins, 1994). As if that werenít enough, last spring we were given what the jacket flap touts as his magnum opus, a tightly integrated sequence of poems translated by Bloch and Chana Kronfeld, Open Closed Open.

Home Notícias de Israel Conheça Israel ... Links A Literatura de Israel YEHUDA AMICHAI Índice A sua vida Poema Livros publicados em hebraico "Quando eu era jovem, o país era jovem. E meu pai era pai de todos. Quando fiquei feliz, o país também ficou, quando saltei nele, ele saltou sob meus pés. A grama que o cobriu na primavera, abrandou-me também seu solo no verão feriu-me como a pele rachada de meus pés. Quando amei intensamente, declararam a sua independência, quando meu cabelo esvoaçou, desfraldaram-se as suas bandeiras. Quando combati, ele combateu, quando me ergui, ergueu-se e quando decai, começou a sossobrar comigo. Agora estou me desligando de tudo isto. Como algo grudado cuja cola secou, eu me desprendo e me enrolo para dentro de mim. Há algum tempo vi um clarinetista na banda da polícia que tocava na fortaleza de David. Cabelo branco e rosto tranqüilo: um rosto de 1946, aquele único ano entre anos famosos e terríveis em que nada ocorreu exceto uma grande esperança e a sua música e amar uma jovem num quarto tranqüilo nas noites de Jerusalém.

A group of tourists stood there around their guide, and I became their point of reference. "You see that man over there with the baskets? A little to the right of his head there's an arch from the Roman period. A little to the right of his head." "But he's moving, he's moving!" I said to myself: Redemption will come only when they are told, "Do you see that arch over there from the Roman period? It doesn't matter, but near it, a little to the left and then down a bit, there's a man who has just bought fruit and vegetables for his family."

Books Index North Bay MetroActive Central Archives Illustration by Tracey Snelling Theology for Atheists Yehuda Amichai's poetry of paradox By STEPHEN KESSLER UNTIL HIS DEATH last month in Jerusalem at the age of 76, Israeli poet Yehuda Amichai was a strong contender for the Nobel Prize in literature. His books were translated into 37 languages beyond the original Hebrew, and Amichai has long been one of the planet's pre-eminent poets. The evidence in English is abundant, most notably up to now in two substantial volumes: The Selected Poetry of Yehuda Amichai Yehuda Amichai: A Life of Poetry, 1948-1994 , translated by Benjamin and Barbara Harshav (HarperCollins, 1994). As if that weren't enough, last spring we were given what the jacket flap touts as his magnum opus, a tightly integrated sequence of poems translated by Bloch and Chana Kronfeld, Open Closed Open ( Harcourt; Brace; $25) Amichai is a connoisseur of the paradoxical. By turns, and often at the same time, erotic and metaphysical, devout and skeptical, earnest and ironic, grief-drenched and dryly witty, his poems investigate contemporary realities from a biblical perspective and rethink biblical stories from a contemporary angle. Jewish down to the bones, his humanity is broadly universal, obsessed as he is with time and death, war and peace, love and memory, joy and suffering. Zionist in his attachment to the rocks and sand of his homeland (Amichai immigrated to Palestine from Germany in 1936 at the age of 12), still he is not a nationalist in the political sense of that word.
