Paperback. Zustand: Good. "Palestine's Children offers the concerned reader an excellent work wherein the translation maintains the powerful spirit that animates the Arabic original."--Aida A. Bamia, Journal of Third World Studies "[Kanafani] unabashedly depicts the hardship of life in the refugee camps, the agony of succumbing to numerous political or ideological shifts, and life nearly devoid of hope. The novella Returning to Haifa speaks volumes about the enduring traumas of war. In a moving, concise manner, this story touches upon many small issues that together contribute to the conflict between the Palestinians and Zionists including identity, language, class strife, and the deceptively difficult task of defining 'homeland.'"--Christine Dykgraaf, MESA Bulletin "Politics and the novel," Ghassan Kanafani once said, "are an indivisible case." Fadl al-Naqib reflected that Kanafani "wrote the Palestinian story, then he was written by it." His narratives offer entry into the Palestinian experience of the conflict that has anguished the people of the Middle East for more than a century. In Palestine's Children, each story involves a child--a child who is victimized by political events and circumstances, but who nevertheless participates in the struggle toward a better future. As in Kanafani's other fiction, these stories explore the need to recover the past--the lost homeland--by action. At the same time, written by a major talent, they have a universal appeal. This edition includes the translators' contextual introduction and a short biography of the author. CONTENTS:  Introduction--K.E. Riley and B. Harlow. The Slope. Paper from Ramleh. A Present for the Holiday. The Child Borrows His Uncle's Gun and Goes East to Safad. Doctor Qassim Talks to Eva About Mansur Who Has Arrived in Safad. Abu al-Hassan Ambushes an English Car.
