Class of 95: A Literary Anthology on the Assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin

His death tore through the heart of Israeli society and reverberated across world Jewry, becoming one of the defining ruptures in modern Jewish history.
Class of 95 presents, for the first time in English, Israel’s poetic response to this national trauma.

Bringing together forty poems by leading Israeli voices, including Dahlia Ravikovitch, Ronny Someck, Agi Mishol, Jimbo J, and Nitzan Mintz, Shachar-Mario Mordechai, Yosef Ozer, and many others.
Edited by Barak Sella, former spokesperson for the Rabin national rally and expert on Israel-US relations.

Translated by Yoni Hammer-Kossoy, Winner of the 2020 Andrea Moriah Prize in Poetry. Cover and design by Elad Medan.
