Review quote
Frayed Light offers readers both a poetic journey and new ways in which to think about the tension between innocence and experience, while enacting what it means to hold one's deepest beliefs up to an inquiring light. Poets must work within the limits of language, yet one senses in these poems that what Berg is seeking in his explorations is a bridge, an intimacy that will overcome barriers of language, religion, and otherness itself.--Janice Weizman, World Literature Today
Frayed Light frames a slice of Israeli life rarely encountered by outsiders. The poems, originally written in Hebrew, come across beautifully in Joanna Chen's exquisite translations.--Gwen Ackerman, Rain Taxi Review of Books
