Unsolved Equations

written by: Shoshana Vegh

translated by: Nadavi Noked

I want you to cut me into little pieces,
To go diving into the depths of madness,
I will be satisfied with nothing less.

I want you to stretch my body
Like a contortionist
All the way to Alaska
I will be satisfied with nothing less.

I want you to take me
Through a thousand imaginations
To the one million dunes
To the mountains
To the seas
Take me to the dreams
To little moments of poetry,
I will be satisfied with nothing less.

I was born in Ashkelon Israel at 1957. I have a master degree in Hebrew literature. I had been teaching for 28 years at high school. I opened in 2009 my own publishing house that introduces new poets from Israel. I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager. My first novel was published when I was 40. I write mostly about love and also about loss. My older brother died while serving in the army and I am writing about getting to reach the unreachable.

Generational Fragility by Lynsey Fyfe

Raising children can be a daunting task; it takes skill, determination and a great sense of humour. Raising them properly is a seemingly impossible task. Parenting has evolved so much over the years, it can be hard to keep up with current advice, but have babies changed? It’s hard to imagine babies are different enough now, to warrant such a drastic change in our parenting techniques in the last few decades.

Back in the not so distant past, almost every mother stayed at home, raising the children and keeping the house, while the father went to work. Times were different.
