We hope that you can join us for our first virtual FCNL Book Club!

Our virtual discussion on Light in Gaza will be on Thursday, Aug. 29 at 6 p.m. ET. Written by 11 Palestinian writers and poets, this anthology centers the voices of Palestinians in the conversation about a just future for Gaza.

You can purchase or download a (free!) copy of Light in Gaza here.

It does not matter if you don’t have time to read the entire book. We will provide excerpts to support our discussion.

If you only have limited time to read the book, please focus on the following chapters: “Introduction” by Jehad Abusalim, “Gaza Asks When Shall This Pass?” by Rafaat Alareer , “Exporting Oranges and Short Stories…” by Mosab Abu Tohab, and “Gaza 2050…” by Basman Aldirawi.

Date: August 29, 2024
Time: 6 – 7:30 p.m. ET
Location: Online via Zoom

We are looking forward to seeing you soon!

In peace,
Lauren Brownlee
Deputy General Secretary
