Description
Offers a pioneering study of the unique nexus between literature and photography in the works of Hebrew authors. Exploring the use of photography - both as a textual element and through the inclusion of actual images - Amihay shows how the presence of visual elements in a textual work of fiction has a powerful subversive function.
