<p><b>FROM THE ORWELL PRIZE-WINNER AND NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST</b><br><br><b>A <i>TLS </i>BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 <br><br>'Palestine's greatest prose writer' <i>Observer</i></b><br><b><i><br>'</i>A valuable read. As well as talking through the history, Shehadeh is reaching out to Israelis and searching for some kind of dialogue' Armando Iannucci </b><br><br>When the state of Israel was formed in 1948, it precipitated the Nakba or 'disaster': the displacement of the Palestine nation, creating fracture-lines which continue to erupt in violent and tragic ways today.<br><br> In the years that followed, while the Berlin Wall crumbled and South Africa abolished apartheid, the Israeli government rejected every opportunity for reconciliation with Palestine. But Raja Shehadeh, a human rights lawyer and Palestine's greatest living writer, suggests that this does not mean the two nations cannot work together as partners on the road to peace, not genocide.<br><br> In graceful, devastatingly observed prose, this is a fresh perspective in a time of great need.<br><br><b>'Powerful' <i>New Statesman</i></b><br><br>'<b>A buoy in the sea of bleakness' Rachel Kushner, author of Creation Lake</b><br><b><br>'Shehadeh is a great inquiring spirit with a tone that is vivid, ironic, melancholy and wise' Colm Toibin, author of <i>The Magician</i></b></p>
