Cradled in God's Arms
“…much of the poetry in this collection deals with Ms. Fogelman’s moving descriptions of the Old City of Jerusalem, of which she is a resident - its sights, smells, people, flowers, its special joining of earth and heaven…. Ruth’s work makes an immediate direct connection to the soul and heart of her readers, ties their hearts to the stones of Jerusalem along with hers. Her poetry is… eminently readable and not just for literary specialists. It can be read by and touch anyone….

“Ruth Fogelman’s delight in and love for the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem is manifest in every page of this fine blend of word and image, poetry and photograph. I recommend it highly.”
Shalom Freedman, Jerusalem, Israel, Jewish thinker and poet, author of Small Acts of Kindness, Life as Creation:A Jewish Way of Thinking About the World and Rabbi Shlomo Goren: Torah Sage and General
“As a reader of the author's previous work, I am not unfamiliar with the lyricism of her verbal imagery, but to find that same compelling sensibility in her photographs is to enter a new dimension of her keen inner vision. Ruth Fogelman's poetry conveys the depth of her passionate love for the Land of Israel and for the life she leads in its eternal embrace.”
