Short story collection by Susan Muaddi Darraj, set across the Palestinian West Bank, centering Palestinian women and exploring family, faith, gender, and the everyday textures of life under occupation. Darraj gives voice to characters rarely seen in Western narratives about the conflict, illuminating how occupation shapes intimate life without reducing characters to their political circumstances. Of value to researchers in Palestinian American literature, scholars of gender and occupation, and anyone studying the literary representation of West Bank life through the lens of Palestinian women's experience.
