Great Regulars: It is thought that Yehuda Amichai

has been “the most widely translated Hebrew poet since King David.” His influence was strong in the United States, where his readings drew large audiences.

His style is considered accessible like Robert Frost, while also including the use of many poetic devices in Hebrew that are untranslatable.
