This is a Hebrew-language book.
The Life of Nava Semel
The life story of the writer Nava Semel—the youngest daughter of a mother who survived Auschwitz and a father who was a courageous Zionist fighter—is a lifelong journey of creation and rebuilding in the face of the silence of trauma.
Born during the rebirth of a new nation, Nava turned to words from a young age to make sense of memories her mother refused to speak about. Once, as a four-year-old, when asked where her mother was born, she innocently replied: "In Auschwitz."
Over four decades of shared life with cultural figure Noam Semel, Nava embodied a new form of womanhood: a creator and a mother, a wife and a writer, skillfully balancing demanding family life with intense literary creation.
