A powerful and moving collection of poems, songs and essay, Words for Gaza masterfully humanizes the often abstract and dehumanized discourse surrounding the Gaza conflict. These words skillfully weave into one tapestry with no jarring conflict: a plea for peaceful action, a cry for love and understanding, a historical look back, and a tribute to the indomitable spirit of the people of Gaza. Not many works on this subject are able to accomplish all this together. This collection encourages readers to look beyond political narratives and recognize the shared humanity that connects us all.


For anyone seeking to understand the human cost of the Gaza conflict and the broader implications of territorial and religious disputes worldwide, this collection is a must-read. Words for Gaza will remain with you and haunt you. "I was doing nothing, and now I am nothing, I played with my ball, and now I am wrapped in a shawl."


It serves as a poignant reminder that empathy and understanding are crucial steps towards achieving peace and reconciliation. Their balanced words, "O Palestine, O Israel, I weep for you both," will stay with you.
