 FOCUS on ISRAEL (Language)
A belief in literature as a means of enabling readers to understand themselves as individuals and as part of their environment characterizes the prose of this period, written by three generations of authors, including new writers, many of whom have received critical acclaim for their first books.
The works of Amichai, the group's dominant figure, are marked by his use of daily speech, irony and metaphysical metaphors, which became the hallmarks of much of the poetry written by his younger contemporaries, who proclaimed the end of ideological poetry and broke completely with the Alterman-Shlonsky tradition of classical structures and ordered rhyming.
Zach's works elicit innovative near-liturgical and musical qualities from everyday spoken Hebrew, and Avidan's poetry dealing with the problems of modern human existence is characterized by linguistic sensitivity and a tendency to the absurd.

 Partisan Review
The decades of the 1950s and 1960s witnessed the emergence of a new generation, termed in common parlance the "sons of the State." In its amplified sense, this designates a specific cultural elite that reviled the literature of the Palmach generation.
In their onslaughts on what they dubbed the collectivistic culture of the "first person plural," Natan Zach, David Avidan, Yehuda Amichai, and Amalia Cahannah-Carmon rocked the foundations of Kassit and other coffeehouses that were the frequent haunts of the Israeli boheme.
But it is important to underscore that the intellectual elite which came to maturity in the small state was not imbued with that sense of possessiveness and mastery over all the Land of Israel inscribed so deeply in the psyche of many who had grown to maturity in mandatory Palestine.
