"First published in Great Britain in 2022 by Profile Books."
Summary:
"A subtle psychological portrait of the author's relationship with his
father
during the twentieth-century battle for
Palestinian
human rights. Aziz Shehadeh was many things: lawyer, activist, and political detainee, he was also the
father
of bestselling author and activist Raja. In this new and searingly personal
memoir
, Raja Shehadeh unpicks the snags and complexities of their relationship. A vocal and fearless opponent, Aziz resists under the British mandatory period, then under Jordan, and, finally, under Israel. As a young man, Raja fails to recognize his
father
's courage and, in turn, his
father
does not appreciate Raja's own efforts in campaigning for
Palestinian
human rights. When Aziz is murdered in 1985, it changes Raja irrevocably. This is not only the story of the battle against the various oppressors of the Palestinians, but a moving portrait of a particular
father
and son relationship."--Publisher.
