#ReadPalestineWeek Day 4
Palestine: A personal history, Karl Sabbagh
#BookSky
Front cover of Karl Sabbagh's book: Palestine - A Personal History Back cover of same book - summary: Palestinians feature regularly in news headlines, but their country is much less known. In this humane and deeply compelling book, Karl Sabbagh traces Palestine and Palestinians from their roots in the mélange of tribes, ethnic groups, and religions that have populated the region for centuries, and describes how, as a result of the interplay of global power politics, the majority of Palestinians were expelled from their home to make way for the new Jewish state of Israel. Palestine: A Personal History offers a sympathetic portrait of the country's rich heritage as well as evidence of the long-standing harmony between Arabs (Muslim and Christian) and the small indigenous Jewish population in Palestine. Karl Sabbagh has written both a transporting narrative and a meditation on a region that remains a flashpoint of conflict--a story of how past choices and actions reverberate in the present day.

For #readpalestineweek, im returning here again. It took me so long to find a copy of this but I’m glad I have one. May your memory be eternal, Refaat Alareer.

#TheSouthernEye by Yousif M. Qasmiyeh, Elena Fiddian-Qasmiyeh & Saiful Huq Omi links (and embodies how to link) memories and experiences of exile, displacement and genocide from Palestine to the rest of the world. Achingly beautiful, wise and profound!

#ReadPalestine Day 5 #AMapofHome by Randa Jarrar is a stunning, brave, brash, poignant, hilarious, all-together brilliant novel. If revolution is powered by joy (and vice versa) this book shows how revolutions are intimate, personal, familial and public. All at once!

#ReadPalestine week - Day 1.
A decade since Gaza Unsilenced was published. Edited by Refaat Alareer and Laila El-Haddad.
This is an absolutely essential - and heartbreaking - read. It is also a fierce, damning indictment of those who pretend history started in Octobr 2023.

#ReadPalestine Day 2 an incredible true love story spanning Palestine, Italy and UK. #TheCrossing by Sabrin Hasbun is a reminder that love, new kinships, and political and ethical commitments flourish despite occupation, apartheid and genocide.
