Awards
• 2017: Prime Minister's Prize for Hebrew Literary Works. The judges' rationale: "Barel writes delicate lyrical poetry, words that process reality transparently and at once illuminate the caverns of the naked soul within a house and within a body. These appear as parallel spaces whose interplay is the foundation for slavery and freedom of the soul. Her poetry processes and reprocesses the experience of orphanhood, and from within it the close distance and the alien intimacy between men and women and between a person and himself are remeasured."
