Focusing on the historical and personal journey of his great-uncle Najib Nassar, an Ottoman journalist, the memoir intertwines family history with the broader narrative of Palestine's struggles for freedom. Raja Shehadeh meticulously traces Najib's escape from occupied Palestine, revealing the stark contrasts between past and present.
