FORGOTTEN PALESTINIAN CITIES by Anonymous

$60.00

Preorders now open for October delivery

‘My dear Palestine, what a blessing it is to be burdened with you.’

For nine years, an anonymous Palestinian historian and artist has maintained the memory of the more than 400 Palestinian towns and villages ethnically cleansed during the Nakba. Through their meticulously colourised archival images and gently lyrical, informative texts, Anonymous offers a rare and precious glimpse into pre-Nakba life in Forgotten Palestinian Cities. This debut collection is an immersive and stunning visual record that vividly recalls a not-so-distant past.

'This book is a pillar of Palestinian scholarship that we need more of. I reach for these images every time I need an escape from the present’s agony, and to remember that one day we will reclaim our land. Until then, we must preserve our history and continue to defy the occupation by remembering, imagining, and resisting.'
