FEARFUL IN GAZA
presented by Abdalhadi Alijla

”What if the place you called home could disappear overnight, and the world simply looked away?”

In ”Fearful in Gaza”, Abdalhadi Alijla answers that question not with abstractions or ideology, but with the intimate, luminous prose of memory.

Born into a family of ten in a Gaza neighborhood where concrete crumbles under airstrikes and childhood dreams blur with nightmares, Alijla tells the story of a life shaped by war, lifted by love, and driven by a hunger to survive and to speak.
In conversation with Ryan from the bookshop.

”One family’s fight to survive, and remember, in a land that won’t let go of hope.”
