Synopsis "Tears for Tarshiha (in English)"
Olfat Mahmoud's confronting autobiography asks when the world will deliver on its promise and allow her people to return home to Palestine.Olfat Mahmoud is a stateless Palestinian refugee. Born in a refugeecamp in Lebanon, she is a descendant of the Christian and Muslim people who were forced from their homeland at gunpoint by the Israeli military in the 1948's Nakba, 'Catastrophe', and who fled Palestine in the period leading up to - and after - the subsequent founding of the state of Israel in 1948.Tears for Tarshiha follows Olfat's career - as a registered nurse, the director of an international NGO, an internationally recognised peace activist, and most recently, the recipient of a doctorate - amid the death and destruction of Lebanon's many conflicts; she chronicles the Palestinian people's remarkable capacity for love and bravery in the most extreme conditions. Olfat's extraordinary story is emblematic of the Palestinian plight, illustrating their continued survival and determination that has become an inconvenience to the international community.
