WorksApples of the Earth
"Her leaps of imagination are startling: in one deft instant, she can connect commonplace objects to motions of the spirit and the heart. Her tone is everywhere sure and clear, the voice of a born poet." --Lynne Sharon Schwartz "In Apples of the Earth Elenbogen is a poet who lives in several worlds at once... living in Chicago she is also in Jerusalem, living in her home she is also far away in Africa. She is a poet who can write about love without embarrassment because for her “love survived in the middle of everything.” With these poems love survives for us as well." --Rodger Kamenetz Exile: Losing the Motherland
