Nokaddish

Absence and Presence are the twin constants of Israeli poet Hanoch Guy-Kaner's new poetry collection NOKADDISH: In the Void. In these poems, Guy-Kaner grapples with the God he experiences, who seems both impossibly distant and almost near enough to touch. NOKADDISH is at times mournful, and at others comedic--but above all, it's a startlingly honest exploration of what it means to be a person living with the Absence and Presence of God.
