8vo; In Hebrew. Inscribed by author on title page. “Shalom, Shin (pseudonym of Shalom Joseph Shapira; 1904–1990), was a “Hebrew poet and author. Born in Parczew, Poland, Shalom was a descendant of distinguished ?asidic rabbis….Shalom's two novels – Yoman be-Galil (‘Galilee Diary," 1932’) and Ha-Ner Lo Kavah (‘The Candle Was Not Extinguished’…) – are useful for deciphering his poetry….Ha-Ner Lo Kavah focuses upon the life of a poet whose private struggle to ensure that ‘the candle does not go out’ corresponds with the nation's struggle for independence and strength….The close friendship between Shalom and Max Brod prompted joint literary efforts….In 1973 he was awarded the Israel Prize, and simultaneously there appeared a special volume comprising 48 reviews of his poems during his half-century of activity” (Katznelson in EJ, 2007).
