Trade paperback. xiv, [2], 169, [3] p. Occasional footnotes. From an on-line posting: "(Tel Aviv, 1932) read history and political science in his native town and in Jerusalem. Apart from some ten collections of poems he published children's books, essays and literary interviews. He also translates from English and for thirty yea…rs he was a member of the editorial staff of Maariv, a leading Israel daily. He is known as well from radio and television for his contributions on literature and his comments on other topics. In London he has been both cultural attaché and journalist, and in Washington's American University he was Writer-in-Residence. Moshe Dor was one of the founders and editors of Likrat, the forum of a new generation of authors which caused something of a revolution in poetry. His very first collection Broshim Levanim (White cypresses, 1954) spearheaded these young poets who favoured the application of a new, more spontaneous Hebrew. His sensual, brightly coloured style is reminiscent of the work of Abraham Shlonsky, one of the great Hebrew poets of the first half of this century. The flush of a new lifestyle, the recently acquired independence, the intoxication of the Israel landscapes with its bright colours, smells and sensual titillations all came together in Moshe Dor's poems and gave his nation's poetry a new incentive. His poetry has evolved over the years. The enthousiasm, the pathos and extreme figurativeness have gradually been replaced by a new elegic-lyrical-existential sound. The Israel me has opened up to the wide world around, has surrendered to another, romantic setting. Moshe Dor's initial attitude hasn't disappeared altogether, but it has been toned down and it has been enriched by the scepticism of a writer who gradually shifted from the Song of Songs to Ecclesiastes." Good. Signed by author. Cover has some wear, soiling and creases. Signed inscription on half-title First English Language Edition[stated]. Presumed first printing. Mulcahy, Joyce (illustrator).
