Mornings in Jenin is a heart-wrenching multi-generational account of one family's struggle and survival through the decades before and after Zionist colonization and theft of Palestine. Carrying us from Ein Hod to Jenin to Jerusalem, to Lebanon, then to the anonymity of America and finally back to Occupied Palestine, it is a novel of vital importance, "affirming all that is enduring and valuable in the undefeated human spirit" (Hanan Ashrawi).

"Affects me emotionally in a way only great novels can."-Henning Mankell
"Achingly beautiful."-Saleem Haddad
"When we grow numb to horror, when our minds slam shut in shock and denial, sometimes a story can slip to reawaken our humanity. This is that story, never more relevant."-Laline Paull
