The Palace of Angels is Mohammed Massoud Morsi’s trio of novellas, discrete and exquisitely written, taking Palestinians from the 1990s to the present day as its subject. The book has already attracted high praise and rave reviews internationally: ”Vital, brutal and tender, The Palace of the Angels is written with the urgency of breaking news and the delicacy of poetry. This is Morsi at his passionate best.” — Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prizewinner “A moving and heartbreaking tale … a beautifully spun personal narrative … a gripping tale that challenges our preconceived ideas and identities.” — Ilan Pappé, Israeli historian and author |
