"Mowafa Said Househ's family fled Palestine in 1948 and arrived in Canada in the 1970s. He spent his childhood in Edmonton, Alberta, where he grew up as a visible minority and a Muslim with a deeply fractured family history. In the year 2000, when Mowafa visited his family's homeland of Palestine at the beginning of the Second Intifada, he witnessed the effects of prolonged conflict and occupation. His experience not only inspired him to tell his story, but awakened him to the intergenerational and colonial traumas he shares with the indigenous people of Turtle Island. His moving memoir depicts the lives of those who live on occupied land and the struggles that define them."-- Back cover |
