The Wandering Palestinian — Anan Ameri's activist travels – Mondoweiss


THE WANDERING PALESTINIAN
242 pp. bhc Press. $25.95 hardcover, $15.95 paperback, $7.95 ebook.
Anan Ameri’s recently released memoir “The Wandering Palestinian” is beautifully written in the tradition of Arab story telling. Its humorous and poignant vignettes travel the reader to Beirut, Detroit, Washington DC, Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Jerusalem. It successfully interweaves the forty-year personal narrative of a free spirited Arab woman who arrives in the USA in 1974, with the larger issues of migration, racism, sexism, and institution building.
Readers will gain an intimate insight into Palestinian and the Arab-American communities’ efforts and aspirations to find their rightful place in the American mosaic. And Ameri includes personal stories of love and a failed marriage (to the author of this review, many years ago), struggle with depression and therapy, as well as activism and grassroots organizing that led to the creation of the Palestine Aid Society ....
