This book analyzes seven important works in the field of Modern Hebrew fiction that were translated to English and adapted into films. The author presents a brief history of Modern Hebrew literature, and a brief survey of Israeli cinema and of the adaptation of Israeli prose fiction into films. The chapters include a presentation of the literary world of the author whose work is studied and an itemization of his literary works in English translations. At the end of each chapter there is a discussion of the cinematic adaptation of the literary work studied in that chapter followed by a bibliography.

Industry Reviews

Hakak provides a very useful and illuminating analysis of the material, primarily as an examination of Israeli culture and society. He does a fine job showing the relationship between the literary material, in both the narrative and film versions, and the social issues at the center of Israeli life.--Hebrew Higher Education
