Mornings in Jenin

In the 20th anniversary edition of "Mornings in Jenin," acclaimed novelist Susan Abulhawa presents the poignant story of Amal, a Palestinian girl born in a refugee camp and shaped by the legacies of war and loss. As she navigates the complexities of her family—marked by displacement, identity struggles, and conflicting loyalties—Amal becomes the emotional core of her siblings' fractured lives, including her brother David, raised as an Israeli soldier. Spanning six decades and multiple continents, this narrative explores themes of heritage, love, and the enduring impact of colonial injustice. The edition features a new introduction by Maaza Mengiste, underscoring its significance in anglophone Palestinian literature, with over a million copies sold worldwide.
