Michal Zamora, the widow of Israel's hero Arnon Zamora, met today (Tuesday) with President Isaac Herzog and presented him with her book 'Greater Than the Sum of My Parts.' In a story she posted on Instagram, Michal shared her complex feelings: 'Would the Michal of three years ago believe such a moment would happen to her? The answer is yes. I didn't imagine it would happen under these terrible circumstances, but I did imagine a moment like this would come. Now that it's here, complex and difficult but also satisfying and joyful – it feels surreal.' According to her, the book went into a second printing less than a week after its launch.
