Palestinian Walks: Forays Into a Vanishing Landscape Shehadeh RajaPaperback
Raja Shehadeh is a passionate hill walker. But in recent years, his hikes have become less than bucolic and sometimes downright dangerous. He enjoys nothing more than heading out into the countryside that surrounds his home.
The earlier forays are peaceful affairs, allowing our guide to meditate at length on the character of his native land, a terrain of olive trees on terraced hillsides, luxuriant valleys carved by sacred springs, carpets of wild iris and hyacinth and ancient monasteries built more than a thousand years ago. That is because his home is Ramallah, on the Palestinian West Bank, and the landscape he traverses is now the site of a tense standoff between his fellow Palestinians and settlers newly arrived from Israel.In this original and evocative book, we accompany Raja on six walks taken between 1978 and 2006. Shehadeh's love for this magical place saturates
