Our interview with Dana Heifetz is part of SmokeLong‘s Global Flash Series. A very special thank-you goes out to Ilana Masad for editing and translating not one but two stories in Hebrew for our readers.

To maintain the integrity of the Hebrew text, we have chosen to display the Hebrew interview (and of course also the English interview) as a pdf. Simply click on the links below:
