Metatron Arts & Media

An essential worker in Israel writes of day-to-day life in the first year of the pandemic. Walking through empty streets, navigating mazes of masks, lockdowns, and ever-changing regulations, he chronicles the uncertain fates of his city’s people and businesses, his family’s experiences in assisted living at the nearby House of a Hundred Grandmothers, and, at his office, the ritual of the Afternoon Prayers.
