FROM THE WINNER OF THE ORWELL PRIZE AND NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST

One of the best books of 2024 according to TLS

The "greatest prose writer of Palestine," according to the Observer

"A precious read. While discussing history, Shehadeh addresses Israelis and seeks some form of dialogue" Armando Iannucci

When the state of Israel was founded in 1948, it caused the Nakba or "catastrophe": the expulsion of the Palestinian nation, creating fractures that continue to manifest in violent and tragic ways to this day.

In the years that followed, while the Berlin Wall came down and South Africa abolished apartheid, the Israeli government rejected every opportunity for reconciliation with Palestine. However, Raja Shehadeh, a human rights lawyer and the greatest living writer of Palestine, suggests that this does not mean that the two peoples cannot work as partners on the path to peace, not genocide.

With writing full of grace and observations that shock, this book offers a new perspective in times of great need.

"Powerful" New Statesman

"A savior in a sea of despair" Rachel Kushner, author of Creation Lake

"Shehadeh is a great spirit of inquiry with a tone that is lively, ironic, melancholic, and wise" Colm Toibin, author of The Magician
