The Story of a People is the sixth in a series of volumes on
Palestinian writers who compel into unity the contradictions of
being Israeli citizens as well as sons and daughters of the
Palestinian people. This volume contains the works of forty poets,
and offers a variety of themes, styles, contexts, imagery, tones,
and language. The poets, arranged alphabetically, depict a faithful
picture of the various aspects of Arab life among what is called,
paradoxically, Israeli-Palestinian societies. They present new
arenas where opposing factors harmoniously join to struggle for
dignity, freedom, and justice. Readers of this volume will
encounter serious poems strewn with light and humorous themes and
poems of sensual and spiritual love interwoven with poems of the
unusual and political. These Israeli- Palestinian poets'
distinctive flavor emerges from their ability to challenge norms,
fight oppression, and burst open closed doors to tell their own
stories - the stories of their plight, alienation, marginalization,
and hopes and dreams - in a new magnified voice, first to their
community, then to their people and nation, then to their country,
and now to the wider English-speaking public.
