Ghada Karmi
Returning to Jerusalem in the 1990s to find the house where she was born, the author must face an unpalatable truth about herself." "In Search of Fatima is an intimate and powerful narrative, in which the Israel-Palestine conflict is presented, unusually, from the point of view of a Palestinian woman. A reflection of the author's personal experiences of displacement, loss and nostalgia, it speaks also for the millions of people all over the world whose lives are forever suspended between the old and the new."--BOOK JACKET.
