The term realism best describes Porat's posture, and his characters and plots reflect the realities of today's Israel and today's Israelis. For there exist decided sociological limits to the length of time that collective enthusiasms and ideals can be sustained as a central societal reality. The dream and struggle for a national revival and the excitement of creating a state and a society cannot be sustained indefinitely. In sum, brevitatis causa, Porat's collection of stories is engaging, poignant, sensitive, thought-provoking writing.
