Book Synopsis
Summoned by his dying mother, Palestinian-born Aziz Shihab returns to the homeland he and his family fled as refugees decades earlier: to a Palestine reclaimed by Israelis and to a country no longer that of his youth in a nation whose estate has been challenged by history. This gripping book chronicles that month-long journey.

Trade Review
In a tone ranging from domestic comedy through social observation to bitter outrage, the author explores the difficulties of life in Palestine, the complex relationships of village life, and the oppression and contradictions of life under occupation." —The Austin Chronicle

"Sharing his story and photos with readers, Shihab both memorializes his homeland and pays tribute to his adopted land." —Al Jadid
