it was amazing

They say the truth is a bitter pill to swallow. Actually it is more than that! Reading this book as an extremely painful journey, in a way that exceeds your worst nightmares.

I wasn't able to read more than 20 pages per day, not because of its richness with information but because my brain needed time to absorb all the atrocities. PLEASE READ THIS BOOK! I think it's one of our responsibilities as humans to educate ourselves about the injustice in the world so we can be part of the change in the futur. again; PLEASE READ THIS BOOK! you'll do us a favor.

Olga Painful journey to read this book, as you said. So true. But got through it.


Prashaantbhujbal Definitely I will read and come back


Peculiarblend I promise myself to educate myself about Palestinians because as a reader; I am hungry for the truth just as much as different interpretations of facts and fiction.


Theodore Knight A must read.


Jaine You summed up my experience of reading this book so well. Such a powerful and harrowing read, and one that will never leave me.


Shibly In the first few chapters - and my heart aches of the pain they had to endure


message 7: by Kerry (new)

Kerry Pickens Are you also reading books about the ethnic cleansing of Jews from the Arab countries. The total was 850,000.


message 8: by Stefano (new) - added it

Stefano Montani Where everything is bad it must be good to know the worst


Jennifer Yes. I can’t get through more than a chapter or two at a time.


message 10: by Johan (new) - added it

Johan Rehnstrom It is simple. If the Arabs hadn’t attacked, the Palestinians would not have been in today’s situation. Water under the bridge. Need to accept historical losses and build for the future.


George Stenger Excellent review.


بسملة We're just reading what happened and feeling like this how painful the Palestinians are when they actually got thrown it, and it still stands until now. Even worse


message 13: by Yassin (new) - added it

Yassin Ghareeb Likewise I swear, can't exceed one chapter per day. Thanks for your review.


message 14: by Iris (new) - rated it 5 stars

Iris Cummings I 100% agree!


message 15: by TassieBoy (new) - added it

TassieBoy Can’t add to this review. Could only take a few pages a day. Am completely broken and undone.. Courage is defined by Palestine. What a debt we will never pay.
