Men in the Sun: And Other Palestinian Stories Jens Soentgen Co-founder of creative direct actionA classic of Arabic fiction and of what Kanafani termed resistance literature Three Palestinian men embark on a brutal and treacherous odyssey across the Iraqi desert to Kuwait, not for liberation but material betterment. Under the indifferent brutality of border bureaucracy and the blank aggression of the sun, things grow increasingly oppressive. Breezily conversational and disarmingly lyrical, this short novel delivers a shuddering dose of horror.
