Against the Loveless World: Shortlisted for Palestine Book Award by Susan Abulhawa

Description

Set in the political crucible of Kuwait, Jordon and Palestine, this is a fascinating novel with an extraordinary character at its heart.  The world outside her isolation cell calls Nahir a terrorist and a whore; some might call her a revolutionary or a hero. But the truth is, she has always been many things, and had many names. This is a novel to be read almost in one gulp and heroine who will haunt you long after the final page. (Rosamund)
