More about the book
The book explores the unique backgrounds and literary journeys of Shimon Adaf and Lavie Tidhar, two prominent Israeli writers with contrasting upbringings. Tidhar's roots in a Zionist kibbutz and Adaf's religious Mizrahi family in Sderot shape their distinct perspectives. Despite their differences, both authors share a deep passion for literature, particularly Hebrew science fiction, which influences their subversive and politically charged narratives. Their works reflect a blend of personal experiences and broader societal themes.
