Descriere Gaza Writes Back, Memorial Edition: Short Stories from Young Writers in Gaza, Palestine - Ali Abunimah

Gaza Writes Back is a compelling collection of short stories written in English by young writers in Gaza in the period soon after Israel's 2008-09 offensive against Gaza known as Operation Cast Lead. The stories, collected by English-literature professor Dr. Refaat Alareer, take us into the homes and hearts of ordinary Gaza Palestinians trying to live lives of dignity and meaning in a community that, even then, was one of the world's most embattled. In early December 2023, the Israeli military assassinated Prof. Alareer sending shockwaves of horror among all who loved and respected him around the world. This new edition of the collection is produced in loving memory of his life and work. It contains a new Foreword by Ali Abunimah of Electronic Intifada. And in the backmatter, where the story contributors had a chance to introduce themselves in their own words in the first edition, now we include updated self-descriptions from all those whom we could contact, whereas the fate of many of those other talented young people remains unknown.
