About This Novel
A phenomenal work that deconstructs the details and logic of the century-old Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The behind-the-scenes story of the perennial war in the Gaza Strip. Co-produced by the American Palestine Institute and the Lebanese Palestinian Refugee Writing Workshop. 11 Unique lives, 11 evocative exiles. The faith and cry of the 13.5 Million Palestinian people. This is an autobiographical work that highly restores the real life of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon. Since 1948, war and occupation have forced countless Palestinians to leave their homes and land and struggle to survive in foreign lands. However, despite suffering in life and bullying as a nation, the Palestinians did not sink and complain. Instead, they yearned for a better world, actively fought and lived happily. This book contains autobiographical essays written by 11 Palestinian refugees living in Lebanon. They use their real experiences to express their thoughts and feelings about life, nation and the decades-long conflict between Palestine and Israel. They use their own personal writing style to show the spiritual outlook of ordinary Palestinians in the context of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and make their own voices heard. Among the 11 articles, there are perceptions of life, memories of childhood, narration of history from another perspective, and stories of happy pasts with family members. The writing is beautiful and moving, and is filled with optimism. It is a unique work that accuses war, eulogizes peace and the glory of humanity, and is also a document that truly records history.
