It's small and it's worth it. A really beautiful depiction of the human experience of time, memory, images, a life. My brother translated it from the original Arabic, so I'm biased, but I agree wholeheartedly with this review: http://www.full-stop.net/2016/09/13/reviews/hilary-plum/describing-the-past-ghas... inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

When he was seven years old, Palestinian poet Ghassan Zaqtan moved with his family to a Karameh refugee camp east of the River Jordan. That camp--a center of Palestinian resistance following the Six-Day War and the site of major devastation when Israel razed the camp following the Battle of Karameh in 1968--is the setting for Zaqtan's first prose work to appear in English, Describing the Past. This novella is a coming of age story, a tale of youth set amid the death and chaos of war and violence. It is an elegy for the loss of a childhood friend, and for childhood itself, brought back to life here as if dreams and memories have merged into a new state of being, an altered consciousness and way of being in and remembering the world.
