Product Details
- Mornings in Jenin is a heart-wrenching novel that portrays the multi-generational story of a Palestinian family displaced to the Jenin refugee camp in 1948.
- The story follows the family's experiences over decades of violent history, from living in canvas tents to more permanent cinderblock huts, while waiting to return to their lost home.
- Narrated by Amal, the granddaughter of the village patriarch, the novel explores themes of love, loss, childhood, marriage, parenthood, and the importance of preserving history.
- The book provides a deeply human perspective on the political conflicts of the twentieth century and touches on themes of identity, friendship, love, terrorism, surrender, courage, and hope.
- Mornings in Jenin has been likened to The Kite Runner for its powerful storytelling, and its compelling narrative offers a fresh look at one of the defining conflicts of our time.

Susan Abulhawa Literary Novels Editorial Review
Mornings in Jenin by Susan Abulhawa is a heart-wrenching, emotional read about the life of a Palestinian family from the 1940s until 2003, amidst the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The novel explores the loss of land, dignity and lives, with a strong message that violence only begets violence. The author's storytelling successfully explores believable and engaging characters and storylines, and gives readers a personal look at the cost of disassembling a nation. Though the book can be difficult to read with graphic detail of the treatment of refugees and the horrors of war, it is a necessary and beautiful telling of a multi-generational fiction which spans over 60 years of Palestinian history.
