Bihemish A Writer’s Diary of a Betrayed Intifada

Description

The title, *Bihemish*, alludes to the marginalization of “small stories”—voices that went unheard amidst the clamor of slogans. Al-Eissa seeks to document these stories using language that resonates with ordinary people, infused with a palpable sense of humanity. The book stands as a testament to a pivotal era in Palestinian history, written from the heart of the events rather than from the outside. It is crafted with a compelling literary style and the fervor of one who truly belongs to that moment—written with the spirit as much as the pen, right here on this land. For in times of just confrontation with the occupier, nothing is truly marginal or devoid of value—or so the documentary diaries and observations of novelist Osama Al-Eissa suggest.
