Summary

How do Palestinians live, imagine, and reflect on home and exile in this period of a stateless and transitory Palestine and a sharp escalation in Israeli state violence and accompanying Palestinian oppression? How can exile and home be written? In this volume of new writing, fifteen innovative and oustanding Palestinian writers-essayists, poets, novelists, critics, artists, and memoirists-respond with their reflections, experiences, memories, and polemics. Their contirbutions-poignant, humorous, intimate, reflective, intensely political-make for an offering that is remarkable for the candor and grace with which it explores the many individual and collective experiences of waiting for, living for, and seeking Palestine.
