I love this review by M. M. Bishop, it touches me deeply because my book, Home, captures my family's history and its trials and tribulations in poetry.
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2023
Home by Uvi Poznansky and Zeev Kachel is a poignant and powerful book of glorious prose and poetry that touches one's soul to its very foundations. I found myself diving into the emotions, into the very heart and soul of two other people whose very life and memories were shared in the most profound and beautiful way possible.
Seldom does one get a chance to walk in the shoes of another, to feel that another person's being and come out the richer for doing so. The sadness, heartache, and love shine through in each page.
It is a beautifully written and powerful book that I will treasure for as long as I live, for it has enriched my life with both the way it was written and the emotions that were shared.
If I could give this book more than 5 stars I would. Thank you Ms. Poznansky for spending the time to both translate and share your father's words, but also to share your own being throughout this book.
