Prizes... It's so outrageous to me that as a Hebrew writer living in the US, I cannot enter any of the Israeli book prizes. They are only for Israeli residents. Hebrew has always been written and spoken outside Israel. This discrimination is so fascist! And you are one of the best writers I've ever read (and I read a lot!) in any language (OK, I only read two languages, but I read translated books too). I admire your writing. NBA, Pulitzer, you should be there!

Thanks. Yes, they are published in Hebrew in Israel. (my third book is forthcoming!) But I hope to publish them in English in the US some time...
Yes! Exactly!
Well said. I feel exactly the same way.
