This is a very powerful commentary on the most complex and devastating conflict in modern times.
The writer weaves her narrative about grief in an extraordinary way, capturing a Nation’s state of complete disbelief and despair that may never dissipate. There is a softness to the essay that attempts to provide comfort and support to a grieving community. I hesitated to read the work but am glad that I made the connection. I admire the courage, bravery and dignity of the journey undertaken.
Your writing about such painful emotions is so poetic, and your photo of the Shabbat table is haunting. Thank you for telling me about your substack.
