Full Description
Set against the emotionally charged background of the early 1990s - when the Gulf War and the Oslo Accords fundamentally shifted the political landscape - "The Inheritance" takes as its subject the fate of young Palestinian women who supported their families by working elsewhere in the Middle East. Sahar Khalifeh illuminating the disorienting experience of living between two worlds, and the search for identity that mirrors the Palestinians' own quest for nationhood.
