Shines a ray of hope into some very dark places' MICHAEL PALIN 'A fearless work of imagination' AHDAF SOUEIF Winner of the Palestine Book Award Nahr has been confined to the Cube: nine square metres of glossy grey cinderblock, devoid of time, its patterns of light and dark nothing to do with day and night. Journalists visit her, but get nowhere; because Nahr is not going to share her story with them. The world outside calls Nahr a terrorist, and a whore; some might call her a revolutionary, or a hero. But the truth is, Nahr has always been many things, and had many names. She was a girl who learned, early and painfully, that when you are a second class citizen love is a kind of desperation; she learned, above all else, to survive. She was a girl who went to Palestine in the wrong shoes, and without looking for it found what she had always lacked in the basement of a battered beauty parlour: purpose, politics, friends. She found a dark-eyed man called Bilal, who taught her to resist; who tried to save her when it was already too late. Nahr sits in the Cube, and tells her story to Bilal. Bilal, who isn't there; Bilal, who may not even be alive, but who is her only reason to get out.","brand":"Bloomsbury UK","offers":[{"title":"Used - very good","offer_id":53967220015446,"sku":"9781526618818-V","price":7.77,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53270812361046,"sku":"9781526618818-G","price":8.44,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9781526618818_1.jpg?v=1781628170","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/abulhawa-susan-against-the-loveless-world-9781526618818","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
