In the summer of 2008, a festive evening at the “Tmol Shilshom” café-bookstore in Jerusalem marked the launch of the first issue of Ashmoret, a literary journal dedicated to Jewish-Israeli fiction.
The event featured readings by Moshe Meir, Yochai Sorek, Yaakov Z. Meir, Ori Alon, Sivan Har-Shefi, and Hila Arazi Hatav, alongside a conversation moderated by Sarah Segal. Music by Nadav Berman Shifman accompanied the evening, which celebrated the exciting debut of a new voice in the literary landscape.
