Selected Political Writings | Ghassan Kanafani

320 pages | Pluto Press | 10.20.24

"No other author has been as profoundly formative for me as Kanafani" Mohammed El-Kurd, poet, writer and journalist, author of Rifqa

"I cannot think of a better collection to guide anyone seeking a moral role in the struggle for the liberation of Palestine" Ilan Pappé, historian and author of The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine

"As relevant today as he was in the 1960s and 1970s" Ghassan Abu Sittah, award-winning surgeon, humanitarian, and educator

Ghassan Kanafani is perhaps the greatest Palestinian novelist whose books, including Men in the Sun and Returning to Haifa, documented the horrors of war and occupation. He was also a leading political thinker, strategist, and revolutionary. Here, his writings on politics, history, national liberation, and the media are collected in English for the first time.

Featuring new commentary from leading writers, this collection is a testament to Kanafani's continuing relevance. His work remains a vital touchstone for the revolutionary Palestinian struggle and anti-colonial thought.
