ثلاثون عاما قضاها مريد خارج رام الله ، لم يرغب في ذلك ، بل اجبره المحتل على البعد ، لم يسمح له برؤية ارضه ، بعد ثلاثين عاما سمح له بزيارة رام الله ، يحكي مريد في هذا الكتاب قصة الشتات الفلسطيني .

This book explores the themes of displacement, identity and belonging. Mourid managed to explore this really well and in detail. 

I did get confused by the people he introduced in his book and couldn't keep up, he also did skip around with the timelines which also added to the confusion. 

Overall, a really good book that gives the reader a look into how Palestinians have been affected and how this has affected the author's behaviours and life.
