Trade Review
'An impressive narrative of life in the West Bank in which simple profundities are asserted powerfully and poetically.' Morning Star
‘Written with astonishing candor and erudition, Sahar Khalifeh’s novel Wild Thorns is a poignant commentary on the psychological impacts of living under occupation ... an exhaustive and embracing meditation on Palestinian society, trauma, and resilience.’ * The Markaz Review *
Sahar Khalifeh’s ‘Wild Thorns’ shines a light on the West Bank * Arab News *
