Description

Set against the backdrop of a pivotal moment in modern history, Minor Detail is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores the long-lasting impact of trauma and violence.

The story begins in the summer of 1949, a year after the war that left deep scars on the Palestinian people, and follows two narratives that intersect in unexpected ways. A young woman's quest to uncover the truth about a traumatic event from her past becomes a journey of self-discovery and a testament to the enduring power of memory.

With masterful prose, Adania Shibli weaves together two narratives of equal length, creating a sense of urgency and intimacy that draws the reader into the heart of the story. The result is a novel that is both a powerful exploration of the past and a deeply personal exploration of the present.
