Against the Loveless World by Susan Abulhawa

5.0

The heart of this book beats alongside that of radical revolutionary legacies,  survivors of displacement, anyone fighting for justice. Abulhawa tells the story of Nahr in her Israeli jail cell backwards, from Jordan to Palestine to confinement. Containing painfully incisive observations on displacement, Palestinian steadfastedness, and one of the most moving and beautiful love stories, this is a book I dearly treasure and strongly recommend.
