\"\"<\/a>The Book of Disappearance<\/em><\/a>\u00a0by Ibtisam Azem
\nThis is a critically acclaimed Arabic novel that invites English readers into the complex lives of Palestinians living in Israel. Here, the wish of the Israeli occupier comes true, as the occupier wakes up one day to find that all the Palestinians on the land of Palestine have disappeared, and with them any sign of their existence. Ibtisam Azem tells the story of how the Palestinians of the interior coexist with everything that surrounds them \u2014 the occupier, the stolen land, and its memory before the occupation, a memory that the Palestinian mostly inherits from his family. It also describes the Israeli, his apparent violence, the fear and anxiety that he suppresses inside, and his constant willingness to steal or plunder what others own.<\/p>\n

Mother of Strangers<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>by Suad Amiry
\nSet in Jaffa in between 1947 and 1951, this is a love story told like a historical account on a true story during the beginning of the destruction of Palestine and displacement of its people. The two lovers meet and then separate without their love story being completed. It describes Jaffa and its villages, and the differences between the lives of villagers and city dwellers in Palestine; but everything changes with the Nakba. In the final chapters, the author meets the two main characters, Subhi and Shams, and each tells the story from his or her point of view (both of whom have reached seventy years of age). A novel suited for our time.<\/p>\n

A sentence from his memoir is found on Hussein Barghouthi’s grave: \u201cIf you visit me, I will be among the almonds.\u201d<\/p>\n
