Agnon House celebrates 80 years for the publication of the book “A guest for the night”; one of Agnon’s best works and one of the top literary works in the Hebrew language in general. The story is based on the author's own story and character. In honor of the joyous occasion, a series of riveting events will be held at Agnon’s House with writers, poets, musicians and other guests, who will discuss the themes that arise from the work and touch on our lives: love, hospitality, the passage of time, memories and more.
Here is a small taste of what is expected, in the spirit of the holidays of Tishrei: love and jealousy, a reading marathon in Rosh Hashana (September 24), Selichot (6 October), Ushpizin (October 15). The book begins on Yom Kippur, and you are invited to spend the holiday at the writer's house.
When: September-October Where: 16 Klausner, Talpiot Details: agnonhouse.org.il/
