Reviews

‘Moving, heartbreaking, and infuriating, testifying to the chilling cruelty of Israel’s policy toward Palestinians … Deeply unsettling, important’ Kirkus ‘The message is unwavering: life under occupation is frightening and oppressive. Strong efforts include Geraldine Brooks’s opening piece, about two Palestinian children caught up in cyclical violence. Rachel Kushner draws out the unsavory subject of Palestinian-on-Palestinian violence. Chabon himself addresses the curbs placed on Palestinian commerce and how this also redefines the Palestinian experience of “normal life.”’ Publishers Weekly
