Twilight: Spotted In HEBREW! (aka “TWINLIGHT”)
September 8th, 2010 at 6:31 am by Kaleb Nation
I’m finally moved in to my new place in Arizona (which many of you have already pointed out is Bella’s former home) and just got back from a short but much-needed vacation visiting friends in Canada. While I was there, I spotted this at Ilana Zackon‘s house — a copy of Twilight from Israel, in Hebrew! I had to grab some photos for all you TG readers:
This is the cover of the Hebrew Twilight. Notice that the entire cover is flipped backwards — even the hands are mirrored!
Hebrew books are read the opposite of English, so the page numbers go backwards.
Some things are lost in translation
Kinda amazing to see how the Twilight Saga has not only taken over our culture but has also made its way all around the world!

Cool!! I am Jewish so I can sort of read Hebrew. Only I don't know it well enough to read it without vowels, or understand the majority of it xD

Haha.. I'm from Israel but I read the book in English.. (original is always the best)
I have to say that you choose one of my favorite parts in the book
when Edward takes Bella hiking and she sees him in the sunlight for the first time
