Palestinian Citizens of Israel - Manar Makhoul - Bog

A study of every novel published by Palestinian citizens of Israel between 1948 and 2010
This book explores the evolution of Palestinian identity from one that struggled for independence and self-determination up to 1948, to one that now presses the call for civil rights and civic equality. What were the forces that shaped this transformation over six decades? Author Manar H.
