Sobre este áudio

'Please read this joyful, tragic account of life in Gaza' MIRIAM MARGOLYES

'Transforms pain into poetry' RUPI KAUR

In early October 2023, Palestinian Plestia Alaqad was a recent graduate with dreams of becoming a successful journalist. By the end of November, her social media posts depicting daily life in Gaza, amid Israel's deadly invasion and bombardment, would profoundly move millions of people. She would be internationally known as the 'Eyes of Gaza'.

Written as a series of diary extracts, The Eyes of Gaza relates the horrors of her experiences while showcasing the indomitable spirit of the men, women and children who share her communities. From the epicentre of turmoil, while bombs rain around her and devastation grips her people, she is witness to their emotions, their gentle acts of quiet, necessary heroism, and the moments of unexpected tenderness and vulnerability amid the chaos.

Through the raw honesty and vulnerability of a normal 21-year-old woman trying to make her way through a human tragedy, The Eyes of Gaza is a potent reminder of the horrors of violence and a powerful testament to the human spirit. It recounts a harrowing experience, but it is not a heart-breaking lamentation. Rather, it is a deeply intimate love letter to a girl's home: demolished before her eyes, yes, but forever present in her heart.

Resumo da Crítica

The raw truth of The Eyes of Gaza hurts. But what's the point of anything if we can't face the truth? Palestinians are just like us; they feel as we feel. Please read this joyful, tragic account of life in Gaza. And celebrate Plestia Alaqad's courage and skill and stop the killing (Miriam Margolyes, bestselling author of This Much Is True)
The Eyes of Gaza transforms pain into poetry, offering readers an unfiltered glimpse into the depths of loss, hope and survival (Rupi Kaur, bestselling author of Milk and Honey)
Written with humor, impossible optimism, faith, and—sometimes—despair, Plestia has given the world an intimate glimpse of life—family, friendship, mutual care, trauma, boredom, hunger, thirst, guilt, and more—in the midst of Israel's ongoing genocide against Palestinians (Susan Abulhawa, bestselling author of Mornings in Jenin)
During the first months of the war, I was working, sleeping and eating in the Operating Room. Days would pass before I would step outside. Plestia became our messenger from the outside world. Hers is a unique story, a unique journey (Dr Ghassan Abu-Sittah)
