'An intelligent, sensitive writer' - Financial Times
Palestine has been under attack for three-quarters of a century. The 'peace process' that has favored the two-state solution for more than forty years has now been internationally exposed as masking the expansion of Israel's apartheid regime. 75 years ago, Ghada Karmi was violently forced from her home in Jerusalem during the Nakba, and ever since has been one of the most vocal proponents of the democratic one-state solution, and the end of the Israeli state.
In this book, she powerfully argues that this solution is the best possible settlement for the Palestinians, including the refugees; imagining a single secular state in historic Palestine, whose inhabitants would enjoy the same rights.
Uniting the land - from the Mediterranean Sea to the River Jordan - and allowing the Palestinian right of return is the only way to end the region's ethnically exclusivist and deadly Zionist control. Gahda Khami's eloquent and moving writing shows that Palestinians refuse to accept the fate created for them by others meekly and that they will never give up fighting for their home.
