star 0 Culture Art

JL;DR SUMMARY Adina Hoffman, an Israeli-American writer, discusses her book "Till We Have Built Jerusalem: Architects of a New City" with host Gilad Halpern, focusing on three architects - a Jew, an Englishman, and an Arab - who played key roles in shaping modern Jerusalem's skyline in the early 20th century.

  • This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude.
  • Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from.
  • But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
  • And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
