Born a Refugee: A Novel of One Palestinian Family

Ali believes that only active resistance can bring the media attention necessary to draw global support for the Palestinian’s bid for freedom. His older brother, Mahmoud, says education is the only path out of the squalid over-crowded refugee camp. They have no control over the political violence that erupts all around them, but Mother keeps the peace within the small house. As the brothers walk their very different paths, will Ali be forced to live the life Mahmoud had to give up when their father was killed?
