Ruqayya was only thirteen when the Nakba came to her village in
Palestine in 1948. The massacre in Tantoura drove her from her home
and from everything she had ever known. She had not left her
village before, but she would never return. Now an old woman,
Ruqayya looks back on a long life in exile, one that has taken her
to Syria, Lebanon, the Gulf, and given her children and
grandchildren. Through her depth of experience and her indomitable
spirit, we live her love of her land, her family, and her people,
and we feel the repeated pain of loss and of diaspora.
