Golda Slept Here is her attempt at telling individual stories of friends and family members who lost their houses in 1948. She's a good writer and seems to have a natural humor but the subject is a tough one, even for her. I felt my heart break about my different times reading this. The more I learn about what occured to make Israel a country and the disconnect between that and what we learned in Sunday school, it makes my blood boil. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Suad Amiry traces the lives of individual members of Palestinian families and, through them, the histories of both Palestine and the émigré Palestinian community in other countries of the Middle East. Amiry mixes nostalgia with anger while mocking Israeli doublespeak that seeks to wipe out any trace of a Palestinian past in West Jerusalem. She juxtaposes serial bombardments and personal tragedies; evokes the sights and smells of Palestinian architecture and food; and weaves for us the tapestry that is the Palestinian reality, caught between official histories and private memories. Through poetry and prose, monologue and dialogue, we glimpse the lost Palestinian landscape, obscured by the silent battle between remembering and forgetting.
