Publisher and industry reviews

UK Kirkus review

There is no stronger argument for Palestine's right to self-determination than this. Said is a highly respected professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, the author of many books on the subject and a powerful agent of reason on many issues Middle-Eastern. No true understanding of the region's struggle is possible until you have read this book. (Kirkus UK)
