Biography

Bat Shahar, was born in 1944 in Jerusalem, daughter of Rabbi Bezalel Jolti. Married to Rabbi Yehoshua Eichenstein, head of the Yad Aharon yeshiva. [2] He graduated from the Beit Ya'akov institutions, whose curriculum does not include modern Hebrew literature. In the 1980s, he enrolled in a writing workshop led by Yoram Kaniuk and Aharon Applefeld.

He later began writing under a pseudonym, because he feared that his identification would lead to ostracism in ultra-Orthodox society and harm his children's marriages. In 1985, her first book, "The Tales of the Cup", including six short stories, was published and won the Newman Prize  [ he ] for Debut Books. [3] His next two books, "Calling the Bats" (1990) and "The Butterfly Dance" (1993) were published in the "Ko Hatafir" series edited by Yigal Schwartz at Keter Publishing. [4]
