Palestinian Walks: Forays Into a Vanishing Landscape by Raja Shehadeh

5.0

I’ve never been so grateful to have read a book. Beautiful, heart breaking, infuriating, personal, lyrical. Shehadeh somehow managed to fit everything into this book: a history of the land, his memories of the land and his own life, his family history, political histories, and current environmental, political, and personal realities. I’m unable to express what this book means to me. Many passages were so touching, I read them multiple times. 5 stars is an understatement.
