Her First Palestinian

Well, that was some delightful writing.

Every line came across as polished and intentional but not in a way that was stifling or heavy. Each story was strong enough and different enough from the others to stand on its own and not become a muddled. The characters each had their particular voice, and they were varied in a way that felt honest, which I loved.

While there is a fair bit of heartbreak and heavy topics in there this book is really more about the diasporic experience than about Trauma. I think this part makes it a uniquely important read at this point in time.
