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.

Reviews for Afternoon Prayers

Joseph Zitt's precise, compassionate observations and his clear, poetic prose expand details of daily life into wonders, and place enormous events, not least the pandemic, into human scale. Characters drift in and out of the flow of life-from the office to the local shops to the busy streets-to reveal their stories. I was drawn into that same flow, the rhythm and churn of days, ritual and quiet, small revelation, captivated from start to finish. -- Gregory Norman Bossert (Winner of the World Fantasy Award)
