This was an interesting piece of journalism, but i wanted more. I think i was expecting something along the lines of in terms of showing the reader how deeply and thoroughly Israel is manipulating the landscape and thereby controlling the Palestinian population. We do get clues like, "I spent my whole life working for them, and now look at me; like a thief, I steal my livelihood in the dark, basruq 'ishti sirqa. It used to take us half an hour to drive there, and now, as you see, it takes us a whole night in the hills...that's if we don't get arrested or beaten up." and 'Did you say from the West Bank to Israel?' I asked out loud. 'Muneer, do you mean to tell me that we've been on "our side" all this time? And what have we been doing for the last ten fucking hours?' What were they doing? They were hiding and dodging Israeli security, waiting for the opportunity to slip across the border...which led the author to puzzle it out: So we're not harassed when in Israel, but we're harassed when in Palestine; we're safe in Israel, but not safe in Palestine. Soon I was talking to myself, and for the first time ever I knew why mad people talk to themselves.

I was excited to read book this because the author would be telling the Palestinian story through the lens of illegal migrant workers*, which to me is an unfamiliar vantage. Despite some very keen observations from the author, I didn't feel frustrated enough reading about their plight. I really wanted the author to delve deeper into the issues and create a more substantive book rather than just a straightforward yet sometimes poetic diary of her trek across the border with a group of workers. She offered her own reflections, memories, daydreams/nightmares, which were interesting and somewhat insightful...but i wish she had included more objective journalism to better illustrate what these men are up against. That said, the author did an excellent job of drawing out the strange confusions and ironies of life in contemporary Occupied Palestinian Territories and Israel "proper." For instance, Arab versus Israeli employers; working in settlements versus working inside Israel; and this observation, perhaps the most poignant of all:

Coming here for one-third of his life, and all his adult life, which had started at the age of thirteen, as there was hardly a childhood for young Palestinians like Murad and his friends. Murad must've felt a strong sense of entitlement to this land. He gave this place his hard work, his cheap labour, his energy and his strong muscles.

and from the Israeli perspective: The majority of Israelis hated the settlers to the point where they insisted that the settlers must remain with us, on the West Bank. However, the author pointed out earlier in the book that one reason Palestinians have, do, and will help with settlement construction is that they fully expect to move into and inhabit these beautiful settlements someday when the Israeli settlers are forced back across the border into Israel "proper."**

*Why are they illegal? In the year 2000, when the second uprising erupted, Sharon cancelled all work permits, and so overnight over 150,000 workers lost their jobs in Israel after having worked there for more than thirty-three years (from 1967-2000). And with a complete economic dependency on Israel, the disjointed and disconnected Occupied Territories hadn't much to offer. This economic dependency is one aspect of life in Palestine i wish the author had explored more deeply.

**But that's only if a two-state solution ever comes to fruition, which I am highly doubtful ever will.

The four stars are four the topic and approach rather than the delivery. For the writing, I would probably give it two and a half. But I have read the book in translation, so that should be factored in as well. The original is hard to find and too expensive for my budget.

The late Edward Said has repeatedly asked us to "reaffirm the power of culture over the culture of power,鈥� and that鈥檚 exactly what Saud Amiry has successfully done in her new book Nothing to Lose but Your Life.

Applying the same successful formula she used in her first book Sharon and my Mother in-Law, Amiry鈥檚 ability to be both funny & balanced even when documenting the inhumane & miserable conditions under which the Palestinians live in the occupied territories is truly powerful. It is also much more effective in amassing the support of people around the world than tens of speeches by politicians.

Amiry鈥檚 book is a chronicle of the 18 hours journey, mostly spent running or hiding, she experienced first-hand when she accompanied a group of Palestinian men from a small village in the West Bank trying to sneak into Israel to reach the worker鈥檚 market, where Israeli employers pick them up to do various manual labor jobs.

I usually complain to everyone I know, and sometimes to people I don鈥檛 know, that I have to wake up at 6:00 a.m. every weekday morning to be at my office at 7:00 a.m. I was ashamed of my petty grumble when I realized that Palestinian laborers, who were denied work permits after the second Intifada, leave their homes at 2:30 a.m., to start a hellish journey that takes them across hills and valleys, through tunnels and over fences, all this while trying to avoid and evade Israeli security forces waiting for them in the darkness of the night.

Exhausted by the dangerous hide-and-seek game between the Palestinian potential laborers and the Israeli security forces, and getting genuinely scared for their safety when the sun cruelly rises before the group is able to reach its destination, I wondered why they just don't turn back and try again the next day. Amiry doesn't leave me wondering for long. A member in her group tells us that the men would chose being arrested or injured over the embarrassment of going home to their families empty handed.

When Amiry and her three companions, Murad, Saed and Mohamed, manage to avoid being arrested, injured, or discouraged by fatigue and the slim chance of finding work that late in the day, and finally go past an opening in the infamous Security Wall in the afternoon, Amiry was shocked, and so was I, when she was reminded that the military check points, the separate roads, the hiding, the chase, the arrests, and the gunshots were all happening in the West Bank, that is, in undisputed Palestinian territories. It is ironic to note that once in Israel; they had relatively much more freedom to move from one place to another, and they even managed to ride the Israeli public transportation.

I strongly recommend this book. The English version was published in 2010 by Bloomsbury Qatar Foundation Publishing. The book is also available in Arabic under the title 賲乇丕丿 賲乇丕丿

This was painful.

Once again, a book about Palestine tears my heart and makes me feel helpless, and mad, and ignorant.

I have a lot of respect for Suad Amiry, as an architect, as a writer, and as an influential woman in the Palestinian cultural scene. She tackled an ignored issue that not much has been written about.

I read the book in English, the original language of the book, but it felt translated and a bit unnatural. A good editor would've added a lot to the value of the book.

I'm definitely going to read books by Suad again, but probably in Arabic.

I read Amiry's "Sharon and My Mother-in-law" first and loved the mix of explaining the Palestinian situation and humor and resilience. The first part of this one didn't hook me like that book, but the second part more than made up for it.

In chapter 10, she realizes they have been in the West Bank all this time (they are about to cross at The Wall) and the dangers, fear of arrest, running, bullets, hiding, etc happened on what is supposedly their own turf. Even for Amiry, who knows about things like this, the shock is palpable.

Chapters 11 and 12 struck me as out of place at first, but after some thought, they capture the situation perfectly. Chapter 11 is a fable or a few fables and 12 is about The Wall and a particular graffiti artist. I didn't realize at first that most of these images are actual Banksy "paintings" on the Wall; I only had seen a few in pictures. This chapter, like the art, is profound.

In chapter 14, this quote was great:
"I don't know what it is about Palestinians; they all believe they can pass for an Israeli, regardless of how typically Arab they look, the second they put on sunglasses."

It comes amid the various adjustments the workers are making to their appearance as they prepare to "blend" in with Jewish Israelis. I was aware of the plight of Palestinian workers, but not so much with this aspect. Very interesting.

Last sentence of chapter 14:
"Only then did I realise that for me, and many others, Israel was virtual. For Murad, Israel was 'home.' Israel was a reality; a harsh reality."

At a cafe (deciding whether or not to continue), she defines the ultimate love-hate relationship, being out of ones' skin, out of place and history as being in her homeland Palestine.

Nearing the decision to quit the search for work for the day and distance themselves from the actual workers who they have slowed down some, they rest in a park and she tells a bit about what an Israeli park actually is- a peaceful green space that, by contrast, was taken by force from Arab villagers. For instance, most Palestinians are referring to Petah Tikvah as Mlabbis, it's original name.

This several pages long daydream about Mlabbis/ Petah Tikvah is brilliant. I wonder if she knew or researched the history, heard bits from Murad, or simply recounted the familiar 1948 Palestine or Nakba memory shared by many people and villages and retold by more.

In chapter 16, she talks about missing the Tel-Aviv (Lod) airport and the firman Sharon issued that no Palestinian from the West Bank or Gaza could use this airport. Also on this portion of the bus ride she remembers various Palestinian villages while looking for the rubble.

At the end, she takes off her worker's clothes and steps back into her life and reflects on the situation- real risks and dangers- that they face every day just to get a day's work. And the author's note! It is an article she reads the day she gets home about a worker getting shot doing what she just did.

鈥楢 land with no people for a people with no land.鈥�

Suad Amiry is an architect and university professor who lives in Ramallah. The presence of the wall between Israel and the Palestinians has had a significant impact on many Palestinians, and it is this impact which has motivated Ms Amiry to write this book. Many Palestinians lost their jobs as a consequence of the wall, and one of those Palestinians is Murad, a Palestinian labourer aged 21 who had been working in Israel since he was 13 years old.

Ms Amiry decided to accompany Murad on a trip to Israel to search for work after hearing some of his stories about the difficulties involved. This is Ms Amiry鈥檚 account of the 18 hour period she spent with Murad 鈥� from the time she patted her dog on the head and left her home in Ramallah, until she returned. She took a tape recorder with her, but much of the book is based on her recollections of the journey: of confrontation, of checkpoints, of Murad, and of the travel involved.

The journey was not straightforward: the travel involves others, each with his (they are all men, except for Suad Amiry) own experiences of life and the constant search for work. Some stories are horrifying, others are amusing, and each involves memories of a different past. There鈥檚 a lot of waiting involved: waiting for Israeli soldiers to move on so that the travellers can cross into Israel. Of the 24 workers from the original group Ms Amiry joined, only 4 made it into Israel, the other 20 were arrested. As were many others of the larger group of 500 to 600 people who were attempting to cross at the same location.

Once they reached the other side, they try to blend in, by getting on a bus with the Israelis:

鈥楽o much for looking Israeli, I thought to myself. It takes more than a pair of sunglasses to escape one鈥檚 looks, one鈥檚 class and one鈥檚 nationality. But I also thanked God that some 10-15% of Palestinians stayed behind in 1948 so as to give us a cover sixty years later.鈥�

The landscape has changed 鈥� many towns have been destroyed and turned into parks by the Israeli authorities. Suad Amiry does not always know exactly where she is:

鈥業 wondered if I was lying in the middle of the Mlabbis graveyard.鈥�

And later reflects:

鈥榃asn鈥檛 it amazing that now we needed simple things such as a road sign to assure us that we truly existed in this land?鈥�

It鈥檚 a disturbing story, but well worth reading for the perspective it offers.

Premessa: erano quattro stelle e mezza, ma la parentesi onirica (con le storie degli animali e le descrizioni surreali del Muro di Banksy) unita alle riflessioni finali mi hanno definitivamente conquistato e commosso.

Amiry porta alle sue narrazioni una mistura affascinante di familiarit脿 e attualit脿, ricordo e cronaca, nostalgia e denuncia.
Ha un tocco riconoscibile e fuori dal comune, che l鈥檋anno trasformata velocemente in uno dei miei autori/trici preferiti.

Ancora una volta 猫 un racconto di pericolo e frustrazione, il resoconto della faticosissima vita quotidiana dei lavoratori palestinesi e dell鈥檃rbitrio dell鈥檕ccupazione, con i suoi capricci burocratici e polizieschi.
Con l鈥檌ncertezza delle reazioni di polizia ed esercito, l鈥檌ncognita del lavoro e del destino non lontano, ma addirittura quotidiano.

Una voce chiara e arrabbiata, ma non disfattista o cinica. Anzi, tutta la storia 猫 pervasa da un indomabile senso dell鈥檜morismo e da un soffuso lirismo, che si unisce alla rabbia e al rimpianto sotto l鈥檕ccupazione.
Il linguaggio rimane vivido, spiritoso. Lo stile personale, riconoscibile e di ottimo livello e ritmo.
Anche appassionante nella cronaca incalzante, con perfetta distribuzione dei momenti di azione e di dialogo o riflessione.

L鈥檕biettivo 猫 perfettamente raggiunto: se questa 猫 la descrizione di una notte qualsiasi di un lavoratore palestinese (che sembra l鈥檃vventura di una vita), il suo modo di guadagnare qualcosa da portare a casa dalla famiglia... di che vita si tratta?

鈥淪olo adesso capivo che quel che incantava Murad era l鈥欌€漚ndarsene libero per il mondo鈥� (...) solo adesso capivo quanto quel piccolo sogno di muoversi in libert脿
sembrasse irrealizzabile. In una vita sotto pressione, trascorsa quasi interamente facendo lo slalom tra grossi ostacoli di cemento.鈥�

Murad aveva 21 anni al tempo di queste pagine. E fa ripensare me - e l鈥檃utrice - a tutti i privilegi che non sappiamo di avere.

I have read this book with the aloof feeling that I actually saw the writer Suad Amiry in person. It was at this year鈥檚 Mediterranean Festival organised in what is called the Garden of Rest, bang at the centre of the Mediterranean, in the small island of Malta. On the last day, with no cloud impeding the stars in the sky, Amiry in a loquacious and funny manner had stole the show. She made people listen, she made people wince and she made people laugh. I knew I had to get her book.

And now finally, it was time to read the book. When it comes to the written word, Amiry is less extravagant. She has managed to put in eighteen hours in just 162 pages. But she equally managed to transform me in her world, make me wince and equally laugh.

She narrates and lives a tragedy that takes place in the form of a journey. A journey not for the sake of itself, but a journey for the sake of survival. A journey for the sake of the dignity of a job. For the sake of feeling useful.

I was feeling of living in a small world, where nothing is far away. The internet medium in particular made me feel like that. I see something at the other end of the world, and with a click it reaches my doorstep in a week or so. I live on an island, but to get to another country, it sometimes feel like getting on a bus, with no passport needed, and in three hours and sometimes literally with a few euros you are miles and miles away from home.

But then, in a particular part of the world, a wall makes crossing from point A to point B a life threatening situation. You might make it past the wall, of course nothing is impossible. But then getting on a bus, it鈥檚 harder than what for me is getting on a plane.

And Amiry reminded me that for some, rather than it鈥檚 such a small world, everyday life is a case of so near yet so far.

I'm sorry to say this, but this book has disappointed me big time. The beginning is good and promising, but the topic is just too big for this author.

The narrator's tone is too lighthearted, she talks more about herself than about the men she's supposed to talk about. She keeps talking about HER fear during the trip, about how out of place SHE feels, about how unfit SHE is, both physically and mentally... She talks so much about herself, she hardly portrays the circumstances of her fellow travelers. Even less their feelings, their fears, their struggle day by day for survival, their accommodation to the overall injustice. She could be talking about any sport, because she really forgets what the story is about. Maybe the title of the book is wrong?

Only at the end of the book does she try to talk about the injustice and tries to transmit it to the reader. Problem is, when you use a paranoid metaphor about animals, and abuse alliteration, the message gets lost. And your reader just got bored.

Of course I could think that maybe the lighthearted tone was used on purpose, that the narrator talking about whether her companions are handsome or not is an attempt to move readers showing us how "naturally" they take the injustice in Palestine. But then, the writing style is too poor, the figures of speech are wrongly used, and the internal dialogue of the narrator gets too distracted at parts.

And it's a real pity, because this book has very good parts, I'll give the author that. I think a good editor could have helped her a lot.

This book is an important read to get a sense of what it is like to live in the Occupied Territories, the struggle to live a life of dignity and to make enough money to live off of. About a group of workers seeking to enter Israel in order to find employment (insecure employment, dangerous, where they could be worked for a month then beaten, arrested, deported, without pay, or killed) as permitless workers. The majority of the book, taking place over one day, occurs in the occupied territories - the chases by the military, the need to sneak about on your own land, the life-threatening danger...

The author of the book is a professor, a woman named Suad Amiry. She disguises herself as a man in order to make this journey, and despite this I feel like the gender dynamics aren't in fact overtly explored. Suad is making a point to look at the lived experience of the permitless worker, and aside from the skepticism and questioning of her travel partners or the family that hosts her briefly in the beginning, gender isn't so much directly explored. Though now that I think on it, looking at the roles women possess through the moments they emerged in this story (mother, food preparers and bearers, lovers or objects of lust; in Israel, business owners or workers, property owners), maybe more was said indirectly than not.


Overall, read this book.
