The version i read (English) was 11 pages long , yet it was one of the hardest things i have ever read.
the Aleph is the first letter of the Hebrewalphabet. Its use for the strange sphere in my story may not be accidental. For theKabbala, the letter stands for the En Soph, the pure and boundless godhead; it isalso said that it takes the shape of a man pointing to both heaven and earth, inorder to show that the lower world is the map and mirror of the higher

i can't describe what this books is about , you have to read it and see how your mind interprets its meaning . all i know that now , all i'm thinking about is El Aleph , would i be able to handle it if i found it ? would i be able to handle the absolute truth ?

Some quotes that i liked :

—————————————————
“Of course, if you don't see it, yourincapacity will not invalidate what I have experienced”
—————————————————

—————————————————
last one , i describes that one particular moment , in which after u witness if , nothing will ever be the same :
“I was afraid that not asingle thing on earth would ever again surprise me; I was afraid I would neveragain be free of all I had seen.”


I loved it , but i can guarantee , its not for everybody . at . all.
