Prof. Becka McKay Publishes Translation in Zocalo

Congratulations to Prof. Becka McKay who has new translation just published in Zocalo. The poem, "Opening, from The Burden of Nisan," is written by Shimon Adaf.

An excerpt from "Opening, from The Burden of Nisan,":

The poem carried her
through time
she lay reading on the balcony
on a sun-wombed border
a chrysanthemum ignited
the garden’s actuality
a well of gravity   [ . . . ]

chrysanthemum
