A compilation of articles celebrating Israeli women

To celebrate today’s International Women’s Day we take a look at some of the best contemporary women’s fiction writers in Israel.

It’s a fascinating list, and to enjoy it to the full, writer Naama Barak recommends some of their best novels.

Also enclosed in today’s email you will find some of our previous women’s day articles looking at women who have managed to achieve great things against the odds, who have broken barriers, inspired others – and one of my personal favorites – a photo story of the incredible women who helped build Israel.

It’s a story that resonates deeply today as Israel faces one of the toughest times in its history and the women of the country have rallied to help in every possible way.

Hurrah to Israeli women!
