By Adania Shibli

Loved by our collective!

This haunting novella is told in two parts: The minutiae of an Israeli soldier’s days leading up to a horrific crime in the wake of the Nakba, and the perspective of a Palestinian woman whose obsession with investigating said crime leads her to meander through settlements and abandoned villages years later. The matter of fact tone and repeated motifs drive home the fact that Israel’s occupation of Palestine is rooted in brutality, and the past and present are inextricably linked.
