Etgar Keret on the war in Israel: “Today, activism is when you post the flag you support on Facebook” – culture

Israeli author Etgar Keret on social media, discussions about beheaded children, the war in the Middle East and the inability to mourn.

Etgar Keret is one of Israel’s most famous and original writers. He writes mainly short stories, often surreal and full of dark humor, and is also a popular children’s book author. The conversation takes place in his living room in Tel Aviv. Big windows, lots of books, there is tea and cookies. Under his chair lies his pet, a white rabbit named Hanzo. Once he hops out briefly, but immediately turns back.
