As these prose poems reveal, so too does Shabbat. Here we meet Shabbat as familiar housemate, as the child whose presence transforms a family (sometimes in ways that outsiders can't understand), as a spreading tree, as an annoying friend who insists on being celebrated, as a child throwing water balloons, as a woman, as a man, as a bee, as the ocean... Through the lens of these deft, surprising, moving prose poems, all seventy of Shabbat's faces shine.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRachel Barenblat, author, \u003cem\u003eThe Velveteen Rabbi's Haggadah\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eTexts to the Holy\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wilhelmina Gottschalk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934730696\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934730690\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Yehuda Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.22d","brand":"Wilhelmina Gottschalk","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983833465087,"sku":"9781934730690","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ca16127c-bcaa-4af2-8889-7b26bce0b1e3.jpg?v=1683268985","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sabbath-bee-wilhelmina-gottschalk-9781934730690","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
