ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-526-61880-1 Prix : 12€ Langues : Français (fre) Catégories : Roman Résumé : A sweeping and lyrical novel that follows a young Palestinian refugee as she slowly becomes radicalized while searching for a better life for her family throughout the Middle East, for readers of international literary bestsellers including Washington Black, My Sister, The Serial Killer, and Her Body and Other Parties. As Nahr sits, locked away in solitary confinement, she spends her days reflecting on the dramatic events that landed her in prison in a country she barely knows.

Instead, the man she thinks she loves jilts her after a brief marriage, her family teeters on the brink of poverty, she’s forced to prostitute herself, and the US invasion of Iraq makes her a refugee, as her parents had been. After trekking through another temporary home in Jordan, she lands in Palestine, where she finally makes a home, falls in love, and her destiny unfolds under Israeli occupation." goodreads.com En ligne : https://media.s-bol.com/JloOx3B55Ykv/AN8vvkj/535x840.jpg Against the loveless world [texte imprimé] / Susan Abulhawa, Auteur . - [S.l.] : Bloomsbury Circus, 2019 . - 366p.

Mornings in Jenin / Susan Abulhawa 

Public ISBD Titre : Mornings in Jenin Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Susan Abulhawa, Auteur Editeur : Bloomsbury Année de publication : 2010 Importance : 331p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-408-80587-9 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Palestine Index. décimale : J-1.3 Palestine Résumé : A heart-wrenching, powerfully written novel that could do for Palestine what The Kite Runner did for Afghanistan. Forcibly removed from the ancient village of Ein Hod by the newly formed state of Israel in 1948, the Abulhejas are moved into the Jenin refugee camp. There, exiled from his beloved olive groves, the family patriarch languishes of a broken heart, his eldest son fathers a family and falls victim to an Israeli bullet, and his grandchildren struggle against tragedy toward freedom, peace, and home. This is the Palestinian story, told as never before, through four generations of a single family. The very precariousness of existence in the camps quickens life itself. Amal, the patriarch's bright granddaughter, feels this with certainty when she discovers the joys of young friendship and first love and especially when she loses her adored father, who read to her daily as a young girl in the quiet of the early dawn. Through Amal we get the stories of her twin brothers, one who is kidnapped by an Israeli soldier and raised Jewish; the other who sacrifices everything for the Palestinian cause. Amal’s own dramatic story threads between the major Palestinian-Israeli clashes of three decades; it is one of love and loss, of childhood, marriage, and parenthood, and finally of the need to share her history with her daughter, to preserve the greatest love she has. Previously published in a hardcover edition with a limited run under the title The Scar of David, this powerful novel is now available in a fully revised, newly titled paperback edition. The deep and moving humanity of Mornings in Jenin forces us to take a fresh look at one of the defining political conflicts of our lifetimes.

The Blue Between Sky and Water / Susan Abulhawa

Public ISBD Titre : The Blue Between Sky and Water Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Susan Abulhawa, Auteur Editeur : Bloomsbury Année de publication : 2015 Importance : 293 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-408-86511-8 Prix : £12.99 Catégories : Famille Guerre Palestine Mots-clés : Palestine  famille  romance Index. décimale : B-2 Famille Résumé : Violently pushed from their ancient farming village of Beit Daras, a Palestinian family tries to reconstitute itself in a refugee camp in Gaza. The men here, those who have escaped prison or the battlefields, worry over making ends meet, tend their tattered pride, join the resistance. The women are left to be breadwinners and protectors, too. Nazmiyeh is the matriarch, the center of a household of sisters, daughters, granddaughters, whose lives threaten to spin out of control with every personal crisis, military attack, or political landmine. Her brother’s granddaughter Nur is stuck in America; her own daughter’s son, traumatized in an Israeli assault, slips into another kind of exile; her daughter has cancer and no access to medicine. Their neighbor, the Beekeeper’s wife, will extract the marijuana resin to shrink her tumor, but it is also Nazmiyeh’s large heart and zest for life that heals, that will even call Nur back from the broken promise of America and set her on a new path. All Nazmiyeh’s loved ones will return to her, and ultimately journey further, to that place between the sky and water where all is as it once was, and where all will meet again.
