Palestinian Blues: Joe Kaplan Presents Zooz

By Ayman Al Zanoun

Here is what Kirkus Reviews wrote about Palestinian Blues: "Zanoun's novel, framed as a fictional memoir, depicts life in Gaza as experienced by the "blockade generation." And, "Zooz's memoirs are presented by Joe, who annotates them with footnotes-he calls them "Joe Kaplan spots"-which are partially designed to defend himself from criticism and also effectively provide readers with a running commentary. This is a very brief work-just over 100 pages-but it's one that's delightfully offbeat and painfully poignant. A vivid and original novel of the Middle East that's humorous and insightful."
