Journalist and author Matti Friedman joins Zibby to discuss his latest book, Who By Fire, which recounts the incredible true story of Leonard Cohen's involvement in Israel's Yom Kippur War. The two talk about the significance of Yom Kippur and the 1973 war in Judaism, Matti and Leonard's missed connection, and Matti's trajectory through journalism toward writing well-researched non-fiction. Matti also shares how he managed to include Leonard's side of this story and the responses he has received from readers so far.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3CguffKBookshop: https://bit.ly/3K2y9LcSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
