That was harrowing and yet heartbreakingly beautiful. I wanted to cry the moment I picked it up. There are not enough words for me to describe the importance of this book and this is just a glimpse of what is still happening in Palestine. The immense love and respect for Palestine--their roots, their ancestors, their culture and traditions, their love for each other, and their loss--is shown through every word.
