In Search of Fatima: A Palestinian Story by Ghada Karmi

3.0

This is a fascinating book that gives a human face to the Palestinian "side" of the Israel-Palestine conflict. So often we in the west are quick to assume that Palestine = suicidal terrorists = "bad". But there is so much more to the story than our news bites and "info-tainment" would have us believe.

I highly recommend this book for anyone interesting in middle-east conflict/history or personal accounts of displacement and shattered cultural identity. I think it can speak to people on a variety of levels...a very good book.
