{"product_id":"historian-in-gaza-a-1","title":"Historian in Gaza, A","description":"‘An unflinching eyewitness account of the destruction wreaked by Israel, with Anglo-American support.’- GuardianLonglisted for the 2026 Moore Prize for Human Rights WritingSelected as a 'Book of the Year' by the Guardian and Spectator ‘The Gaza I knew, and whose length and breadth I’ve travelled, has ceased to exist.’ Jean-Pierre Filiu, acclaimed historian of Gaza, is intimately familiar with the land’s people and places; he speaks the local dialect. But nothing prepared him for what he encountered there in December 2024. This is his unforgettable, unbearably intimate account of one month in a place shattered by Israel’s all-out war. When the historian returned to Gaza, he arrived under circumstances unimaginably different from his many past visits since 1980: only a limited number of convoys were allowed into the Strip, and he was one of the few humanitarians able to enter, this time by night. He remained inside for thirty-three days, and emerged determined to bear witness to the devastation—to the Gazans fighting simply to live, every single day. Filiu’s haunting portrait of a land betrayed is a grim work of war reportage, documented with the acuity of a historian; and a lyrical narrative of human suffering, and human dignity.","brand":"C Hurst \u0026 Co Publishers Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58933959917903,"sku":"9781805267546","price":21.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/historian-in-gaza-a-1","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
