A brief book/essay though one that still made an impact. Isabella Hammad writes with intellect and conviction about the dehumanization of Palestinians and the power of literature to illuminate truths about oppression and injustice. At the same time, Hammad honors how devastating it is for Palestinians to have suffered and to have faced/continue to face genocide � how it’s insufficient for stories to change hearts when Palestinian lives have already been cut short. A moving read and one that may be particularly well-suited for those who enjoy reading about literature or reading literary criticism.
