Produktbeschreibung

Young Palestinian author Shada Mustafa's debut novel interrogates the memories of growing up, falling in love, that force themselves to be reckoned with. Ceaseless questioning to revisit the "things" she has left behind, lets the narrator redeem her life from the inexplicable pain and loss of childhood in an occupied and divided land and family.
