Al Mirath - The Inheritance (in Arabic)
Khalifeh, Dr Sahar a.
Synopsis "Al Mirath - The Inheritance (in Arabic)"
In this powerful novel, Sahar Khalifeh examines the stark realities in the lives of Palestinian Arab women. Through her protagonist, Zeynab, born to an American mother and a Palestinian father, Khalifeh illuminates the disorienting experience of living between two worlds, and the search for identity that mirrors the Palestinians' own quest for nationhood. In her previous novels, Sahar Khalifeh has established herself as the premier feminist Arab novelist; in The Inheritance she breaks new ground in giving voice to Palestinian and Arab women and their economic exile. With its critical portrayal of the Palestinian authority that symbolizes all authorities in the Arab world, their mistakes, and limitations, The Inheritance offers a surprising look at the realities of Palestinian life, and Arab family life in a complex society. As the story of an immigrant torn between two cultures and struggling to adapt to both, Zeynab's tale touches on universals themes that will resonate with readers everywhere. The Inheritance is a powerful and intense novel, rich with its layers, colorful scenes and its deep human characters.
