Rifqa is Mohammed El-Kurd's debut collection of poetry, written in
the tradition of Ghassan Kanfani's Palestinian Resistance
Literature. The book narrates the author's own experience of
dispossession in Sheikh Jarrah--an infamous neighborhood in
Jerusalem, Palestine, whose population of refugees continues to
live on the brink of homelessness at the hands of the Israeli
government and US-based settler organizations. The book, named
after the author's late grandmother who was forced to flee from
Haifa upon the genocidal establishment of Israel, makes the
observation that home takeovers and demolitions across historical
Palestine are not reminiscent of 1948 Nakba, but are in fact a
continuation of it: a legalized, ideologically-driven practice of
ethnic cleansing.
