The latest edition of The New European has an extract from Daybreak in Gaza, in which Mahmoud Muna, a bookseller and cultural activist in Jerusalem, and Matthew Teller, a UK-based journalist and author, gather together almost a hundred accounts of Gazan lives and stories from before and during Israel’s ongoing assault. Their book, they say, is “an attempt to amplify marginalised voices and illuminate hidden histories to evoke the spirit of a place under attack through the lives of its people”.
Daybreak in Gaza will be published on October 3 (Saqi Books, £14.99); profits will support the charity Medical Aid for Palestinians.
