Israel 60: Goats and Apples

A collection of stories exploring culture, identity, and Israel.

This publication is a celebration of the diverse literary talent Israel has to offer. Israel’s achievement in reaching 60 years as a modern and democratic state despite facing many challenges, also offers an opportunity for reflection. This publication is a tool to assist in that reflection.

The varied stories raise questions of what we perceive Israel to be, challenge the role Israel plays in our identity, and explore the experiences of and relationships between the many different people and characters that form part of Israeli society.
