    Roter Hintergrund, ein Bild von Adania Shibli. A glimpse into the book. In 'Minor Detail', Adania Shibli explores a brutal crime committed on year after the Nakba. She tells the sory of how a young woman in Ramallah reads about this 'minor detail' years later in a larger context, eventually fascinated and obsessed with it. In this compelling novel, Shibli's haunting prose is a form of resistance in itself. Join us for fruitful discussions!
