Edna – Bracha Sari Online now

Edna, like all of Sari s poetry, confronts the reads with the multitude of expectations they bring to a meeting with Poetry Books. Edna is printed in small format, self-published, without punctuation, accompanied by verses and handwritten notes. The whole life of Sari unfolds in front of the reads, and they seem to dive in, to the heart of Sari s unique poetics. It seems that Sari s honesty speaks to everyone, and there is no one that will not identify with her piercing poems.

From her beginning, Sari has dealt with questions of faith, women status- her place in the Yemenite community in Jerusalem, and the harsh daily life. In her tenderness, her poetry reached a refinement and an interim summary . There is neither a shout nor an enormous protest as in her book Tears nor the anarchist dimension of Seventy Wandering Songs . Edna has a special and unique voice, in which Sari writs through a new perspective.
