gentle pictures of

The drawings are by Ora Ei-

n The Press and Politics

in Israel: The Jerusalem
Post from 1932 to the Pre-
sent (Greenwood Press), Er-

win Frenkel considers the
relationship between a news-
paper — in this case the
Jerusalem Post — and its soci-
ety. How, he asks, does the
news affect governments, indi-
viduals and interest groups?
What is its role in shaping pub-
lic opinion?
Mr. Frenkel, former editor of
the Jerusalem Post, begins his
text with a history of the paper
and includes chapters on such
topics as coverage of the Israel-
Egypt peace treaty and the Post
and the intifada.
In his chapter on the Pales-
tinian uprising, Mr. Frenkel dis-
cusses how the Israeli press
quickly sensed within the coun-
try's leadership sharp dis-
agreements about how to
handle the situation, then took
a position itself.

Even as it acknowledged that

Israel could not surrender to re-
bellion and the army could not
surrender to stones, the press
was primed to agree that the in-
tifada was more than a military
problem. That disposition was
not partisan. It derived in part
from familiarity and in part
from skepticism about power.
Thus, the press naturally pre-
ferred the cool reasoning of the
army high command over the
hot reasoning of the Likud and
right-wing politicians.

from as diverse a group of
women as revolutionary Emma
Goldman and writer Edna Fer-
ber.
Wise Women includes such
chapters as: "Votes For
Women," "Fear Berlin: 1938"
and "Glimpses of Grandmoth-
ers." It also features folklore,
with tales of Bruriah and the
infamous Vashti.
The book was compiled by
Doris Gold, an editor with Bib-
lio Press and former university
professor, and author Lisa
Stein.

H

is mother calls him Rody,
but everyone else knows
him as "Chicken Man."
The adventures of this
kibbutznik are chronicled in the
new children's book Chicken
Man (Mulberry Books) by
Michelle Edwards.
A National Jewish Book
Award winner, Chicken Man
tells the story of the troubles
that arise on Kibbutz Hanan
when Rody is transferred from
the chicken coop to the laundry,
the dairy, the garden and finally
the children's house. When he
arrives at the latter, Chicken
Man discovers this scene:

Lev Raphael

ust out in paperback from
Okemos native Lev
Raphael is Winter Eyes
(St. Martin's Press), the
story of how the Holocaust con-
tinues to torment the
Borowskis, Polish-Jewish death
camp survivors who keep their
history secret from their son.

Gabi was dumping oatmeal
in Eli's bed. Eli, Hannah and
Matan were making their chairs
and tables into a wobbly tower.
Mira and Shira were unrolling
a roll of toilet paper to see
whether it would really stretch
to Tel Aviv.

In the end, Rody returns to
the coop where he is happiest.

Mr. Raphael also is the au-
thor of Dancing on Tisha B'ay. .

Winter Eyes is set in New York

and Ann Arbor.
