The Book of Candles: Eight Poems for Hanukkah
Laurel Snyder
A family marks each of Hanukkah’s eight nights, beginning as a candle is lit in a dark room. The poems follow holiday rituals, songs, family and friends, and a mix of old and new traditions. Everyday events are part of the celebration too, including takeout dinners, a flat tire, and one night that becomes an unexpected scramble. Together, the poems trace one family’s Festival of Lights.
