“Proof of Life: An Exploration of Conflict, Survival, and the Human Spirit, Post October 7th,” just released September 27, 2024, is a gripping anthology that stitches together moving voices from across the globe, capturing the journey of the Jewish people through the aftermath of October 7th. In this collection, readers will encounter poems that traverse the emotional spectrum—ranging from the depths of anguish and fury to the heights of hope and courage. “Proof of Life” is not just a book; it’s a resonant testament to the strength of the human spirit amid rising antisemitism and rekindled hate.

Sharon began her career at Random House and Penguin Books, where she developed a deep appreciation for the power and magic of words. Since October 7th, Sharon has devoted herself to advocating against hateful incitement and promoting civility and inclusivity in her communities. She founded the grassroots movement enoughto.ca to champion these values. ‘Proof of Life’ is her passion project, inspired by her personal poem that serves as the anthology’s title piece.
