3 HEB 592 Special Topics: Israel in Modern Hebrew Literature Baruch Link I may add or delete from this list once I have a better understanding of the student levels in the class. In the meantime, most all of the poems and short stories will come from this book list. Please note that all books are in Hebrew except for the Dan Paggis book. The ones that are listed in English besides the Paggis book, are listed as such because the publisher gave an English title. Please note that there were other publishing dates for some of these books and the date isn t as significant as the book itself. Any edition of the books will work. Please do not hesitate to call or have the Hebrew Librarian call if there are any questions. Thank you in advance for your help. 1.
