| 1. |  | The Selected Poetry Of Yehuda Amichai, Newly Revised and Expanded edition (Literature of the Middle East) from University of California Press Price: $13.57 Customer Review:  To read Yehuda Amichai in English is to sojourn, yes, in Jerusalem, more, in Amichai's denuded heart -- but to see it all with a crick in my neck, able only to look out the left-hand side of the bus. In this translation of his Selected Poetry, the scenes pass: stone and sand architecture; crowds of... |

| 2. |  | Poems of Jerusalem and Love Poems (Sheep Meadow Poetry) from Sheep Meadow Price: $11.96 Customer Review: Amichai was one of the major voices of the 20th century. He's not sufficiently well-known, perhaps because he wrote in Hebrew. The world needs to discover this humane, wise man. This is a parallel text with the translations done by some very well-known poets, including Ted Hughes. Amichai... |

| 3. |  | Open Closed Open: Poems from Harvest Books Price: $11.90 Customer Review: I cannot say if this represents the best of Yehuda Amichai or whether his earlier work was better but it is "for the ages." Amichai forever. |

| 4. |  | Yehuda Amichai: A Life of Poetry, 1948-1994 from Harper Perennial Price: $15.96 Customer Review: Amichai is I believe the most read of all modern Hebrew poets. His writing works on many different levels, and often has a simple surface story meaning which is eminently understandable. But beneath there are layers of complexity and irony, a deep awareness of Hebrew poetry, and traditional... |

| 8. | [no image] | Love Poems from Gefen Books Customer Review: I have long loved this bilingual edition of Amichai's poetry - I studied modern Hebrew prior to studying Biblical Hebrew; I chanced upon this book on a friend's shelf while studying, and was presented with the volume as a gift for successful completion of the modern Hebrew class. This text... |

| 11. | [no image] | Poems of Jerusalem from Gefen Books Customer Review: The poet Ted Hughes, who translated many of Yehuda Amichai's poems (in tandem with the poet) said he admired Amichai's poetry because he could read the Bible like a newspaper. What Hughes meant, of course, was that Amichai did what many Hebrew poets do, but only did it exceptionally well: he often... |

| 13. | [no image] | Amen from Milkweed Editions Customer Review: Amichai is the great master of modern Hebrew poetry, whose work can always be read at many different levels. There is a clear surface meaning, and there are layers of implications. The language too is like Agnon rich with religious traditional textual irony. With Amichai the poetry always... |

| 15. |  | Great Tranquillity: Questions and Answers from Sheep Meadow Price: $12.95 Customer Review: I picked up this little volume and began to read. I know Amichai's work in Hebrew and wanted to see how much came over in English translation. I was astonished. The poems are also tremendously powerful and moving in translation. He opens with a poem of commemoration to a comrade who was... |

| 20. | [no image] | Not of This Time, Not of This Place from Mitchell Vallentine & Company Customer Review:  "Not of this time, Not of this Place" by Yehudah Amichai is an original novel, which is its only strength. I was captivated nor really feeling anything for Joel, who basically pulls a "Sliding Doors" thirty years before the movie. The novel follows a divergence where Joel either stay in Jersusalem... |

| 23. | [no image] | Open-Eyed Land from Gefen Books Customer Review: This is by far one of Amichai's most incredible collections. This tri-lingual book is a wonderful introduction to Amichai's poetry, to poetry in general, and should be read by anyone who has ever been moved by a desert lanscape, especially that of Israel and Jordan. |
