Forging White Heat: A Post–October 7 Haiku Journey

from Jewish Ideas to Change the World · host Valley Beit Midrash

A virtual event presentation by Sara Tropper About The Event: In this book talk, I will present the forging of “White Heat” and read select poems from the volume. I will share what spurred me to write the book, define haiku and its interesting history, and discuss the sumi-e (Japanese pen-and-ink) artwork that accompanies the poems. The talk is designed to give the audience time to absorb the poems and images. About The Speaker: Sara Tropper lives in Israel with her husband, children, grandchildren, and a large, affectionate dog. When she is not editing books for scholars, she enjoys losing on the soccer field to her grandsons. She wrote “White Heat” on the hillside with her canine sidekick. ★ Support this podcast ★
