I didn't make it through the first chapter—the prose is just godawful.

Very much enjoyed it. I like Amiry’s storytelling abilities, even if I was over hearing about the English suit 😂

This book tells a story of the destruction of Palestine, but also a story of love and kindness and how it can prevail even in times of darkness. A wonderful, heartbreaking read that is full of culture and knowledge.
