  Leah Goldberg
Leah Goldberg (1911-1970), a Hebrew poet and student of literature, who is considered one of Israel's classic poets.
Goldberg's literary style was modernist, that may superficially looks uncomplicated (she writes in a poem about her own style that "lucid and transparent / are my images").
Goldberg's poems often speak about loneliness and broken relationships, of which she speaks with a tragic intonation, originating as some may say in her own loneliness.

The book, which is due in stores tomorrow, examines the 1963 murder of Bessie Goldberg, and posits the notion that the man convicted of the crime (which happened at a house down the block from the author's childhood home) could be innocent.
The book makes a case for the possibility that the Goldberg murder could have been committed by the man who was later identified as the Boston Strangler (Albert DeSalvo), instead of Roy Smith, a fl day laborer who was in the Goldberg home on the day of the murder and was convicted of the crime.
In an April 5 story in The Boston Globe Leah Goldberg (now Scheuerman) said: ''The book is inaccurate." She goes on to say that the author "leads you to believe that maybe it's possible Albert DeSalvo killed my mother.
