Trade Review

"A valuable contribution to the literature on gender studies and resistance in Palestine and the Middle East by drawing our focus to the body and the realm of [the] intimate as a medium for experiencing subordination, whether through patriarchy or settler-colonialism, and the way the body becomes a means of resistance."—Julie Peteet, University of Louisville

"Defying 'The Plan' portrays a nuanced and complex understanding of the relationship between Palestinian women, Palestinian society, and the Zionist state."—Islah Jad, Birzeit University
