I’ve cotranslated Hebrew poetry with Hana Inbar, who knows Hebrew inside-out. We’ve mainly translated only two poets for publication. The first poet is Ronny Someck, the other is Ortsion Bartana. We’ve also translated the flash fiction work of Yossel Birstein, who is Hana’s father. See under the menu above Art for You / My Cotranslated Books for the two collections of Ronny Someck and Yossel Birstein we cotranslated .
