READING PALESTINE
A reading group focused on Palestinian literature, with discussions led by Professor Elliott Colla of Georgetown University. Last fall, we read all three published works of the British-Palestinian author Isabella Hammad (The Parisian, Exit Ghost, and Recognizing the Stranger: On Palestine and Narrative). This spring, we discussed Minor Detail by Adania Shibli, The Book of Disappearance by Ibtisam Azem, and Palestine’s Children: Returning to Haifa & Other Stories by Ghassan Kanafani.
Reading Palestine will be taking a break for the summer, but please sign up below for the email list if you’d like to be updated when we resume.
