Description
Occupation Diaries offers a unique perspective on life under occupation in Palestine. Raja Shehadeh shares his personal experiences and observations of daily life, revealing how even the smallest details are affected by the presence of an occupying force.
The mundane tasks of everyday life - managing water supplies, dealing with rubbish collection, navigating checkpoints - become complex challenges that require careful planning and consideration. Meanwhile, larger questions about collaboration, change, and the future of Palestine remain pressing concerns.
