LONDON: A Hebrew version of “Intermezzo” by Irish novelist Sally Rooney is being released through Israeli publishers who support Palestinian rights, The Guardian reported on Tuesday. Rooney had originally blocked a Hebrew version of the 2024 book on grounds that she supports the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel. However, the 35-year-old is now working with independent Israeli publisher November Books, alongside media outlets +972 Magazine and Local Call.

Four years after Rooney cited BDS in declining a different Israeli publisher, she speaks with activist Samir Eskanda about the artist’s role in the boycott movement
