Why read it?
1 author picked Mural as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This collection of poetry by a revered Palestinian poet illuminates his people’s emotional and historic connection to the land that is now the state of Israel.
His poems, many of which were set to music, are credited with solidifying a Palestinian national consciousness. His family was displaced from their home by the Israeli army; when they returned, they lived as second-class citizens.
The work achingly describes an abiding sense of love and loss.
From Julie's list on the Israeli Palestinian Conflict.
