Four Plays

By: Judith Weinshall Liberman

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The four plays in this collection were all written after Judith Weinshall Liberman reached her eighties. One play, EMPATHY, was inspired by a period in the playwright's life, when her husband, then only 52, suffered a stroke which rendered him unable to play the piano and led to his severe depression. The other three plays - GOOD OLD ABRAHAM, MICHAL and SISERA'S MOTHER - were inspired by Old Testament stories which the playwright studied in elementary school in her native Israel but upon which she bestows, in her plays, a mature perspective that raises questions relevant to our times.

On Being an Artist

Three Plays and a Libretto

By: Judith Weinshall Liberman

The three plays and the libretto in this collection were all written by Judith Weinshall Liberman when she was in her eighties. All four dramatic works are semi-autobiographical and give expression to the insight the author gained through half a century of creating visual art and of writing. The rst play, SOUL MATE, was inspired by Ms. Liberman's collaboration with a gifted young composer on her own rst musical play. Both VINCENT'S VISIT and JUDITH AND ANNE were inspired by the author's experience as a visual artist, especially by the years she devoted to creating her three series of artworks about the Holocaust. TO BE AN ARTIST integrates elements from VINCENT'S VISIT and JUDITH AND ANNE into a musical play in which the characters express themselves not only through frank dialogue but also in twenty lyrics which provide insight into their minds and hearts. Also included in the book are black-and-white reproductions of twenty- ve of Judith Weinshall Liberman's artworks. These reproductions are designed to help the reader better understand some of the matters discussed in the book.

Like life itself, PASSION covers the whole gamut of human experience. Two-Way Street Somewhere along the line I learned Loves not a one-way street, For if you take but do not give, Youll end up in defeat. So dont forget to give your love To those of whom youre fond. For true love is a two-way street. Your love will seal your bond.

Looking Back

Four Plays

By: Judith Weinshall Liberman

Looking Back, the first collection of published plays from visual artist Judith Weinshall Liberman, brings the ineffable human experience to life, to the stage, and to the imagination. Written in her eighties, these four new plays explore a journey to understanding, as filtered through a mature perspective that raises questions relevant to our times. When her husband, a professor of law and a gifted pianist, suffered a stroke in his early fifties, everything changed. A heartfelt study of their shared journey to understanding and compassion, Empathy explores the impact of life-altering illness on a family. Until recently, Liberman never questioned biblical Abrahams obedience to God, but after a lifetime of reflection, that all changed. Good Old Abraham questions the rationality and morality of Abrahams behavior and his suitability for the positive symbolic role accorded to him by history. Like Michal, daughter of King Saul, Liberman has known the agony of grief in wartime. The loss of her only brother during the Israel War of Independence in 1948 inspired Liberman to create Michal, in which a young woman is caught up in forces beyond her control. As in her other plays, the implications of Siseras Mother extend beyond the confines of the drama. A lifetime of contemplation about the war against the Canaanites revealed something extraordinary to Liberman: the Canaanite commanders mother was not a villain but the tragic victim of mans inhumanity. A profound and achingly beautiful passage into the human experience, Looking Back brings new light to timeless issues.

Zina

A Selection from Her Poems and Photographs

By: Judith Weinshall Liberman

This book affords English-speaking readers their first opportunity to read and enjoy the poetry of Zina Weinshall. Zina was born in Russia in 1900 and moved to Israel in 1920. Early on, she wrote her poetry in Russian, her mother tongue; later, after she had mastered the Hebrew language, she wrote her poems in Hebrew, the language of her adopted land. Through this translation of Zinas poetry into English, poems from both groups are now accessible to western readers. Seventy-eight of the poems in this book represent three separate collections of poems which Zina had printed as small books between 1929 and 1944 for distribution to family and friends. The poems have been left in their sequence as organized by Zina herself within each of the collections. Also included in this book is a poem Zina wrote after losing her son in war in 1948. In addition to Zinas poetry, readers will find a large collection of family photographs assembled by the editor, Zinas daughter, Judith Weinshall Liberman, and the editors comments about each photograph, both captivating and enlightening. The editors preface to the book, as well as her essays about the life and writings of Zina Weinshall, round out the picture, and help the reader gain insight into a unique poet.

The sonnets in SONNETS OF PAIN AND FORGIVENESS convey some of the important lessons Ms. Liberman has learned during her long life.

ABOUT THE BOOK RONNIE'S ALARM CLOCK tells the story of a lonely alarm clock who tries to connect to others in order to overcome his loneliness. The clock's efforts to reach out to Ronnie and to his friends at school end up disastrously, as do his efforts to befriend various objects at home until... ABOUT THE AUTHOR Born in Israel (then called "Palestine"), Judith Weinshall Liberman came to the United States in 1947 to pursue higher education. She earned four American university degrees including two in law, a J.D. from the University of Chicago Law School and an LL.M. from the University of Michigan Law School. After settling in the Boston area in 1956, she studied art and creative writing. Beginning in the early 1960s, and for four decades thereafter, Ms. Liberman created numerous series of artworks. Her art has been widely exhibited, and is represented in the collection of museums and other public institutions. During her long career in visual art, Ms. Liberman wrote several books, among them some picture books. Her book THE BIRD'S LAST SONG (Addison-Wesley, 1976), which she also illustrated, won a citation as one of the "fabulous books of the year." Since 2012, she has published several additional picture books, including ICE CREAM SNOW, THE LITTLE FAIRY, COLOR IN OUR WORLD, THE VERY OLD PAINTER AND HER HUSBAND, HAIFA, ANGEL'S PUPPIES, THE GIANT HOUSE, THE BEE AND THE BUTTERFLY, THE MOUNTAIN, THE TUNNEL, THE OLD DOLL, THE LITTLE SONGBIRD, FIFTEEN FABLES, TWELVE MORE FABLES, THE BIRD WHO WENT TO HEAVEN, A PARAKEET FOR ERIC, TALES OF HUMAN FOIBLES, IN THE MILITARY CEMETERY, THE GIRL AND THE PIGEONS, MORE TALES OF HUMAN FOIBLES, MICHAEL AND THE FLAG, WHAT WILL I BE?, IF I HAD THE POWER, IF I WERE RICH, LUCY AND THE SNOWMAN, THE WHIRLPOOL, THE RIDGE, IF I HAD A LITTLE SISTER, GRANDMA'S GLASSES, IF I WERE A MOM, ANNE FRANK IN MY ART, RUTHIE AND HER ANCESTORS, AN INTRODUCTION TO MY JUDAICA ART, HEAVENLY GARDENS, SHOP AND SHOP, HOLOCAUST PAINTINGS, and HOMO SAPIENS. Judith Weinshall Liberman's archives can be found in the Arts Department of the Boston Public Library and at the Smithsonian Archives of American Art. ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATOR RONNIE'S ALARM CLOCK is the tenth book on which Judith Weinshall Liberman, the author, has collaborated with Cindy Nguyen, a Gau Family Studio illustrator. The two had previously collaborated on THE LITTLE SONGBIRD, on THE BIRD WHO WENT TO HEAVEN, on THE GIRL AND THE PIGEONS, on WHAT WILL I BE?, on LUCY AND THE SNOWMAN, on IF I HAD A LITTLE SISTER, on IF I WERE A MOM, on THE SECRET, and on SHOP AND SHOP. Since Ms. Liberman did not feel that, in view of her deteriorated eyesight, she could do justice to illustrating RONNIE'S ALARM CLOCK herself, she turned to Gau Family Studio to create the illustrations under the author's guidance. In the present book, Ms. Nguyen beautifully captures the spirit of the story and of its characters.
