9781804298589 6989d292e7b2639a874f62a4 Men In The Sun And Other Palestinian Stories (verso Editions) https://www.midlandbookshop.com/s/607fe93d7eafcac1f2c73ea4/6989d293e7b2639a874f62ac/51bromxlqrl-_sl1500_.jpg

Three Palestinian men embark on a brutal and treacherous odyssey across the Iraqi desert to Kuwait, not for liberation but material betterment. Under the indifferent brutality of border bureaucracy and the blank aggression of the sun, things grow increasingly oppressive. Breezily conversational and disarmingly lyrical, this short novel delivers a shuddering dose of horror.

Collected here alongside the titular novella are six short stories, including the timeless, resonant 'Letter from Gaza', Kanafani's first published work.
