‘For me it is about the houses’: A review of Suad Amiry’s ‘Golda Slept Here’
Alice Bach reviews Suad Amiry’s new book ‘Golda Slept Here’: “Since publishing her first gem of a story (“Sharon and My Mother-in-Law”), another decade of occupation has passed. Thus in ‘Golda Slept Here’ her wit is a bit strained. While her sassy tone is diminished in the new book, her love for the buildings and the villages of Palestine are more foregrounded. The absence of old Palestine is more important than the sitcom irony of struggling with the soldiers.”
