Frishman Beach

This guide to Frishman Beach in Tel Aviv follows David Frischman, a sharp-tongued Hebrew literary critic who spent his career dismissing the language's revival as a fantasy, and his 1911 voyage to a young, dune-covered Tel Aviv. You'll hear what he encountered on these sands that changed his mind, and about the life in Berlin that followed. Walk the beach at the foot of Frishman Street, where his name still marks the ground he only visited once.
