How did Amalia Kahana-Carmon use stream-of-consciousness writing?

Amalia Kahana-Carmon utilized the stream-of-consciousness technique to delve into the subjective impressions of human experience. By employing this narrative style, she was able to explore the complexities of time and memory, moving away from the more prevalent, objective Zionist themes of her era.12

Unlike many of her contemporaries in the 1960s who focused on collective ideals or external Israeli realities, Kahana-Carmon’s writing prioritized the inner lives of her characters. Her work often centered on individuals who felt marginalized by society, using her stream-of-consciousness approach to map a realm of personal desire, fantasy, and internal struggle.2
