kalo gue bisa kasih 6 bintang juga gue kasih 6 dah. Kata per kata kalimat per kalimat yang dipilih tuh beneran kayak teriak ke pembaca kalo keadaan di Palestina itu segitu parahnya dan kita ga boleh harusnya normalize hal itu. Mereka deserves better than this. ada satu kalimat yang aku inget dan bikin nangis banget. intinya kayak "kami, orang orang Palestina deserve kuburan yang lebih baik." bayangin bahkan untuk dapet kuburan/ acara peringatan kematian pun mereka ga dapet. Doa terbaik untuk Palestina. from the river to the sea, palestina will be free.

Please go read this book. I don’t like poetry but this might be the only poems I can read because it is raw, sad, horrible sometimes beautiful. I was near tears because of how unfair and not right people in Gaza live. Why is it beautiful ? Well I am going to give you an example like the author talk about tea and he makes it for everyone neighbours, friends, guests and it’s like saying welcome or Marhaba in Arabic. I couldn’t help but highlight stanzas because the words were striking. I’ll never forget the content of this book, even if I wanted to I don’t think it will be possible.
