Re: Mishkenot Sha'ananim 2008
Hi miriring, I've made a thread specifically for this event. Can you tell us a little more about it? Has it been going for a while, or is it a new event?

Re: Mishkenot Sha'ananim 2008
Hye Stewart,
It is not the first time we have this writers Festival here. Look at the least of the authors. I think it is very respectfull. I am going tomorow to 2 sessions. One is with a portuguese writer Lidia Jorge who is a very interesting writer. her books were translated into many languages. I have to check for the English translation. Sometimes the english translation is not so well...

Re: Mishkenot Sha'ananim 2008
The Literary Review mentioned this festival a couple of days ago and now mentions it again today, noting that there's a Palestine Literary Festival running concurrently with it. This time in the mention is regarding an article in the Christian Science Monitor, observing that the Israeli-Palestinian split even extends to literature.
