This harrowing ethnography of lives barred from hope and yet seeking an ordinary existence in occupied Palestine is permeated by political urgency and a captivating poetic hesitancy. Lotte Buch Segal's intense listening and probing analysis brings these characters and their demolished households out of obscurity, letting them shatter and recast our understanding of political violence, chronic suffering, and human endurance in the twenty-first century.\" * João Biehl, author of \u003ci\u003eVita: Life in a Zone of Social Abandonment\u003c\/i\u003e *\u003cbr\u003e\"Imaginatively conceived and written with great compassion and grace, \u003ci\u003eNo Place for Grief \u003c\/i\u003emakes a rich contribution to our understanding of social suffering and the folding of violence into everyday life.\" * Veena Das, Johns Hopkins University *\u003cbr\u003e\"Lotte Buch Segal's \u003ci\u003eNo Place for Grief \u003c\/i\u003eis not just another addition to stories of suffering and trauma among the Palestinians-rather, it shows how the relation between gender and violence is paramount to the way in which political violence might be understood in long, drawn-out conditions of war and occupation. As such, \u003ci\u003eNo Place for Grief \u003c\/i\u003e is relevant not only to psychologists and anthropologists, but also to global and public health readers who seek to understand what life is like in a context of protracted and ongoing exposure to political violence.\" * Rita Giacaman, Birzeit University, Palestine *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 1.
