The Scar of David: A Novel |
| Susan Abulhawa |
| Journey Publications, 2006, hardcover, 333 pp. |
| Every now and again a literary work changes the way people think. Abulhawa has crafted a brilliant novel about Palestine. The book opens in the 1940s, in the small village of Ein Hod, before the forced relocation of residents to the Jenin refugee camp. Once in the settlement, a young girl named Amal becomes the story's focus. Through Amal's eyes, readers see the daily routines of generations of refugees and glimpse the indignities imposed on Palestinians by the Israeli army. |
