Translation From Hebrew Quotes

“She knows he is there now, hedgehogged in terror. Like someone whose arm has been amputated, so, since they cut the umbilical cord, she keeps feeling him swimming and kicking in the placenta of the world, which as always is filled with gold fish and singing dolphins but also alligators and leeches and all sorts of mollusks. And people who in the blink of an eye turn into telescreens.”
― Corinna Hasofferett, A Minyan of Lovers

“I've gone and hired myself out. I've hired myself out to Death.”
― Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, The Fifty Minute Mermaid
