Words of the Week: “Shelter Lingo”
Just one page from the “The Underground Issue” (wartime) of the journal Balagan, which you can access on the Writing on the Wall website.

This is brilliant. I’d never have known from the U.K. Press that Israel was being bombed. Then I saw my friends, exhausted as they race to the shelter for the fourth time that night. And bombs landing.
I wish I could say that I’m surprised by the lack of coverage of how Israelis are experiencing this war, but I am not. Similarly, I wish I could count on the usual literary aggregators to share news of this magazine and its latest issue as they amplify others, but I’d frankly be shocked to see such acknowledgment. Thank you so much for your presence, Cathy.
