Dear Layla: Welcome to Palestine A Novel
Whats this novel with the long table of contents about anyway? Its about Umm Safi. Its about epistolary ecstasy. Its about broken hearts whichever way you look. Its about Murad saying, Lets not waste it. Its about the power of a theatrical performance. Its about olives. Its about getting a little taste. Its about el derecho de vivir en paz. Its about sumud. Its about satyagraha. Its about postcards in the era before Tweets. Its about Walt Whitman saying, Journeyers over consecutive seasons, over the years, the curious years each emerging from that which preceded it. Its about life under military occupation. Its about life under neurotic preoccupation. Its about how grades arent everything. Its about letting go, letting go, and letting go. Its about a certain Spanish word.
