Hope and optimism should always be on our minds. I met Ziyad Khadaash many years ago and I fell in love with his stories and I have read all of his books and enjoyed them.

This is what led me to offer to translate one of his books. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book \"Our Wounds Tell Who We Are\" is full of Palestinian real stories that I and the majority of Palestinian can relate to. I had the pleasure of translating them despite the linguist and cultural challenges. I hope I was successful in bridging the cap and transferring the creative ideas present in these stories to new audiences. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI started this note with words from Mahmoud Darwish and I am a believer that Ziyad is our next Darwish. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFayeq Oweis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTranslator\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ziyad Khaddash\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1961498073\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781961498075\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Inner Child Pres, Ltd.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.26d","brand":"Ziyad Khaddash","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44302106591487,"sku":"9781961498075","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_199f305b-2f0e-4d5d-bc8e-05f5561b0904.jpg?v=1695159549","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/our-wounds-tell-who-we-ziyad-khaddash-9781961498075","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
