this book follows a palestinian woman named amal, from her birth in jenin during the nakba to her eventually fleeing to the united states and having a child of her own. it’s kind of hard to put my feelings about this book to words. i don’t think a fictional book has gutted me this much, because this book isn’t all that fictional. what an incredible debut novel. i can’t wait to read more of susan abulhawa’s books.
