"To start love like this: with a cannon shotlike Ramadan.That’s a religion! Or with the blowing of a ram’s horn,as at the High Holidays, to exorcise sins.That’s a religion! That’s a love!"

As we enter the Days of Awe between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, Marcela Sulak reads several of Yehuda Amichai's poems about the themes of the High Holidays: Judgement, memory, and, of course, the blowing of the shofar or ram's horn.
