Susan Abulhawa gestaltar de mänskliga aspekterna på en av vår tids mest svårbearbetade politiska konflikter och visar på varje människas behov av ett hemland, sammanhang och trygghet. Palestina 1940. Olivodlaren Yehya Abulheja lever som hans förfäder gjort före honom med sin familj i den rofyllda byn Ein Hod. Men när staten Israel utropas 1948 krossas friden i Ein Hod för all framtid och samtliga invånare tvingas bort ifrån sina fädernehem och flyttas till ett flyktingläger i Jenin. Yehya tvingas fly med sin hustru Basima och deras vuxna söner Hasan och Darweesh. Under flykten rycks Yehyas barnbarn Ismael ur sin mor Dalias famn av en judisk soldat som överlämnar gossen i gåva till sin svårt traumatiserade hustru, en överlevare från Förintelsen. Lille Ismael växer upp som David Avaram och kommer som israelisk soldat att slåss mot sin biologiska familj. I flyktinglägret i Jenin föder Hasans hustru Dalia ytterligare ett barn, dottern Amal som är bokens egentliga berättare. Amal överlever med nöd och näppe sexdagarskriget 1967 gömd i ett skyddsrum och hamnar så småningom i en flickskola i östra Jerusalem där hon får sin utbildning, för alltid skild från sin familj. När den israelisk-palestinska konflikten når sitt crescendo 1982 förlorar Amal i stort sett alla hon älskar i kriget i Libanon. Hon tvingas fly till USA och uppfostrar på egen hand sin nyfödda dotter Sara och skapar sig en egen tillvaro. När Amal, många år senare, får besök i USA av en israelisk man vid namn David, på jakt efter sin rätta identitet, knyts de lösa trådarna i väven ihop och hon väljer att återvända till Mellanöstern med sin dotter. Tillsammans upptäcker de ett splittrat hemland som kanske aldrig mer blir sig likt.

Compiled by bestselling author susan abulhawa, an Arabic-English bilingual anthology of essays from eighteen young Palestinian writers trying to survive the genocide in Gaza.In early 2024, writer and activist susan abulhawa managed to enter Gaza twice through the Rafah crossing. There, at the Culture and Free Thought Association, susan held a series of workshops for young people who had been displaced to tent encampments. The lives of all participants were marked by unrelenting Israeli violence and extraordinary loss—of home, family, safety, education, electricity, and all the structures of life. They’d fled from place to place as Israel’s colonial violence swirled around them, complete with food and water insecurity and constant threat. Still, despite the bitterness of life in tents and the dangers of travel, they came together to share in the refuge of writing and community. Samya recounts a tender moment with an old man mending shoes in the street, while her cousin Saja hides books in her closet, hoping they and her home will still be there when she returns. Ghassan is haunted by the baby he rescued from the rubble, who for a time became his son. Fatima risks it all retrieve her clothes from a danger zone buzzing with drones and warplanes. Maram’s loving aunt is gone, and chaos inhabits Amr’s mind. Samah, Lubna, Rizq, and Nebal take us by the hand through raining death, trails of tears, classroom shelters, and shared clothes in crowded tents. Every Moment Is a Life delivers rare, unfiltered portraits of life under genocide, platforming the emerging voices struggling to survive in Gaza today. These essays are raw and real, capturing human moments—buying bread, going to the bathroom, sharing a meal, drinking coffee—all set against the backdrop of history’s first livestreamed ethnic cleansing. With courage, anger, love, agony, and—impossibly—hope, these achingly tender voices from Gaza will stay with us, captured in these pages, forever. *All proceeds go to the contributors in Gaza and to Palestine Writes Literature Festival

'A thrilling, defiant novel' FATIMA BHUTTO'A masterpiece' MARC LAMONT HILL'Wonderful ... Shines a ray of hope into some very dark places' MICHAEL PALIN'A fearless work of imagination' AHDAF SOUEIFWinner of the Palestine Book AwardNahr has been confined to the Cube: nine square metres of glossy grey cinderblock, devoid of time, its patterns of light and dark nothing to do with day and night. Journalists visit her, but get nowhere; because Nahr is not going to share her story with them. The world outside calls Nahr a terrorist, and a whore; some might call her a revolutionary, or a hero. But the truth is, Nahr has always been many things, and had many names. She was a girl who learned, early and painfully, that when you are a second class citizen love is a kind of desperation; she learned, above all else, to survive. She was a girl who went to Palestine in the wrong shoes, and without looking for it found what she had always lacked in the basement of a battered beauty parlour: purpose, politics, friends. She found a dark-eyed man called Bilal, who taught her to resist; who tried to save her when it was already too late. Nahr sits in the Cube, and tells her story to Bilal. Bilal, who isn’t there; Bilal, who may not even be alive, but who is her only reason to get out.

From the author of the international bestseller Mornings in Jenin comes a powerful, passionate story of a family separated by conflict, and the tragedy they endure'The story Susan Abulhawa tells in this marvellous novel is hard to bear but impossible to ignore ... precise, courageous, and dazzling' Teju Cole'Gripping and deeply moving … Suffering and resilience are difficult things to witness, but this powerful, politically engaged novel does so with a transformative literary grace.' Independent on SundayIt is 1947, and Beit Daras, a rural Palestinian village, is home to the Baraka family – oldest daughter Nazmiyeh, brother Mamdouh, beautiful, dreamy Mariam and their widowed mother. When Israeli forces descend, sending the village up in flames, the family must take the long road to Gaza, in a walk that will test them to their limits.Sixty years later, in America, Mamdouh’s granddaughter Nur falls in love with a doctor. Following him to his work in Gaza, she meets Alwan, who will help Nur discover the ties of kinship that transcend distance – and even death.Told with raw humanity, The Blue Between Sky and Water is a lyrical, devastatingly beautiful story of a family’s relocation, separation, survival and love.

Journalists visit her, but get nowhere; because Nahr is not going to share her story with them. The world outside calls Nahr a terrorist, and a whore; some might call her a revolutionary, or a hero. But the truth is, Nahr has always been many things, and had many names. She was named for the river her pregnant mother crossed when she fled from Palestine, but her feckless father called her Yaqoot, Ruby. For a time when she came of age she was Almas, Diamond, a girl who went to hidden parties in Kuwait with powerful men, who sold off parts of herself to keep her family together. She was a girl who learned, early and painfully, that when you are a second class citizen love is a kind of desperation; she learned, above all else, to survive. She was a girl who went to Palestine in the wrong shoes, and without looking for it found what she had always lacked in the basement of a battered beauty parlour: purpose, politics, friends.

Arab American Book Award Winner 2021 Aspen Words Literary Prize Finalist 2020 Athenaeum Literary Award Finalist 2020 Palestine Book Awards Winner Longlisted for Rathbones Folio Prize “Susan Abulhawa possesses the heart of a warrior; she looks into the darkest crevices of lives, conflicts, horrendous injustices, and dares to shine light that can illuminate hidden worlds for us.” —Alice Walker, Pulitzer Prize–winning author In this “beautiful...urgent” novel (The New York Times), Nahr, a young Palestinian woman, fights for a better life for her family as she travels as a refugee throughout the Middle East.As Nahr sits, locked away in solitary confinement, she spends her days reflecting on the dramatic events that landed her in prison in a country she barely knows. Born in Kuwait in the seventies to Palestinian refugees, she dreamed of falling in love with the perfect man, raising children, and possibly opening her own beauty salon. Instead, the man she thinks she loves jilts her after a brief marriage, her family teeters on the brink of poverty, she’s forced to prostitute herself, and the US invasion of Iraq makes her a refugee, as her parents had been. After trekking through another temporary home in Jordan, she lands in Palestine, where she finally makes a home, falls in love, and her destiny unfolds under Israeli occupation. Nahr’s subversive humor and moral ambiguity will resonate with fans of My Sister, The Serial Killer, and her dark, contemporary struggle places her as the perfect sister to Carmen Maria Machado’s Her Body and Other Parties. Written with Susan Abulhawa’s distinctive “richly detailed, beautiful, and resonant” (Publishers Weekly) prose, this powerful novel presents a searing, darkly funny, and wholly unique portrait of a Palestinian woman who refuses to be a victim.

Susan Abulhawa gestaltar de mänskliga aspekterna på en av vår tids mest svårbearbetade politiska konflikter och visar på varje människas behov av ett hemland, sammanhang och trygghet.Palestina 1940. Olivodlaren Yehya Abulheja lever som hans förfäder gjort före honom med sin familj i den rofyllda byn Ein Hod. Men när staten Israel utropas 1948 krossas friden i Ein Hod för all framtid och samtliga invånare tvingas bort ifrån sina fädernehem och flyttas till ett flyktingläger i Jenin. Yehya tvingas fly med sin hustru Basima och deras vuxna söner Hasan och Darweesh. Under flykten rycks Yehyas barnbarn Ismael ur sin mor Dalias famn av en judisk soldat som överlämnar gossen i gåva till sin svårt traumatiserade hustru, en överlevare från Förintelsen. Lille Ismael växer upp som David Avaram och kommer som israelisk soldat att slåss mot sin biologiska familj.I flyktinglägret i Jenin föder Hasans hustru Dalia ytterligare ett barn, dottern Amal som är bokens egentliga berättare. Amal överlever med nöd och näppe sexdagarskriget 1967 gömd i ett skyddsrum och hamnar så småningom i en flickskola i östra Jerusalem där hon får sin utbildning, för alltid skild från sin familj. När den israelisk-palestinska konflikten når sitt crescendo 1982 förlorar Amal i stort sett alla hon älskar i kriget i Libanon. Hon tvingas fly till USA och uppfostrar på egen hand sin nyfödda dotter Sara och skapar sig en egen tillvaro.När Amal, många år senare, får besök i USA av en israelisk man vid namn David, på jakt efter sin rätta identitet, knyts de lösa trådarna i väven ihop och hon väljer att återvända till Mellanöstern med sin dotter. Tillsammans upptäcker de ett splittrat hemland som kanske aldrig mer blir sig likt.

Amal Abulheja är på besök i sin barndoms Jenin på Västbanken tillsammans med sin dotter Sara då Israel oväntat gör en räd in i det palestinska flyktinglägret. När stora delar av lägret jämnas med marken kastas Amal tillbaka in i det förflutna, till 1967 och tiden för sexdagarskriget, då hennes egen far dödades, hennes bror gick under jorden och hennes mor långsamt slöt sig inom sig av sorg.Detta är Amals dramatiska berättelse om den palestinska släkten Abulhejas skiftande levnadsöden och en hyllning till den besynnerligt starka, men ordlösa, kärlek som får släkten att hålla ihop under fyra generationer trots svåra förluster och umbäranden. Det är även en skildring av en av vår tids mest svårbearbetade politiska konflikter, och visar på varje människas behov av ett hemland, sammanhang och trygghet.Susan Abulhawa föddes i Kuwait av palestinska föräldrar på flykt från Israel efter sexdagarskriget 1967, men bor sedan tonåren i USA. Morgon i Jenin blev Susan Abulhawas stora internationella genombrott och romanen är översatt till ett tjugotal språk.
