This book begins in 1981, when our author’s bus is stopped at Surda checkpoint between Birzeit and Ramallah. She’s detained for hours along with all the other bus riders. To calm herself, she goes into a reverie that takes her to her safe-haven, postbox 34. This box is her own little world of freedom where she receives letters from her pen pals, to whom she writes about anything and everything, except her traumatic childhood experiences!This account is a flashback told in the innocent voice of a three-and-a-half-year-old girl who is separated from her parents, for a whole day, during the six-day war in 1967. As the planes fly overhead, the family flees their home. Ibtisam who is still trying to lace up her left shoe suddenly realizes that there’s no one there. As fear strikes her little heart she leaves her right shoe and goes out into the dark. The courage and endurance of this little girl, in her quest to reunite with her parents is heart wrenching.Ibtisam Barakat draws you into her innocent, patient, persistent and very imaginative little life with magic strings that she weaves with her words and metaphors. She makes friends with a baby donkey in whom she confides. When she must leave him behind, she makes friends with the first letter of the alphabet and confides in the piece of chalk that drew him, until it finally crumbles into dust. This child’s life is full of fear, courage, agony, happiness, love, disappointment, and fulfillment as she endures the occupation along with her family.The book ends in 1971 when a broken hearted Ibtisam moves again from her childhood home, this time for good.In writing this book the author frees herself of the emotions that compelled her to shield her childhood. Her story is not done though. It continues in her next book Balcony on the Moon: Coming of age in Palestine… My next read.
What a charming and at the same time gut-wrenching account of a young girl growing up in occupied Palestine! I thoroughly enjoyed this honest and sweet autobiography.I met the author, Ibtisam Barakat, at my school last semester, and she's amazing as well. I hope everyone who is anti-Palestine reads her work or hears her speak and realizes that these are actual human beings with families and lives who are being torn apart and threatened by the occupation.
I just finished reading this exquisite book by a writer I met 10 years ago at a writing retreat for women. Ibtisam struck me then as an exceptionally vibrant and talented young writer who gave me her favorite book of poems by Hafiz. She had just begun writing her memoir, Tasting the Sky, at the time so it was with delight I read that it had been published. The stars must have been dancing around this young woman as she wrote because her words sing across the pages, even while narrating the traumatic experience of fleeing her home at the age of 3 1/2 during the Six Day 1967 Arab-Israeli War, when she was separated from her parents and walked for days in bleeding bare feet before finding them. This is a story of a closely knit family who manage to gather every joy to be found as they struggle to rebuild their lives and make a home. Two loving brothers, a doting and dedicated father, the lively young girl herself and her strict but caring mother share a generosity of spirit and hopefulness that lifts what could be a story of victimization into one of ongoing hopefulness, and yes, forgiveness.
You will love this book.Is so super good.There is a "historical note" at the end that does not match at all, as ifwritten by some editor not the author.The book itself though is perfect. Vivid kindnesses from a Palestinian Blackgirl's perspective. Beautifuland vegan too!
Bought this for my daughter for a school assignment but ended up reading it myself too. This is a classic childhood remembrance story combined with the horrors of war....definitely a deep book but worth the investment...the author, about whom the book is about, still manages to leave the reader with a feeling of hope for the future despite the situational pain she faces during her journey...suitable for older kids, my daughter is 11 (advanced reader) and was able to comprehend the material, but some of the background info kinda flew over her head because she is not old enough to have really been exposed to something like this yet...
I found this a moving, poignant, powerful story of a girl growing up in war and under occupation. There are grim details in here, but Ibtisam captures the joy and delight of childhood and growing up more than anything else. I have purchased many copies of this book to give out to friends and family because I love to support independent writers, women writing their memoirs and books that go beyond politics and rhetoric to show us the true heart of humanity. Without exception everyone I have given the book to has been deeply touched by the story and in turn passed their copy on to someone else. I do believe the world is made a better place by hearing well told stories of ALL people. This particular book fills a large void in world literature -- the voice of a Palestinian young woman!
My husband purchased this book as an addition to our Catholic School's library wanting to give the students a glimpse into an experience they might otherwise not understand. Having now read the book, I am looking forward to sharing it with schools young readers and also grateful to the author for sharing such a sweet and thoughtful story. Considering buying more copies to give as a gift. Such a great read!
I used this book as a read aloud in my 5th grade daughter's homeschooling segment on the middle east. We both really enjoyed how the story was told and the details. It gave us a lot to discuss as far as the history of the Middle East, Israel, and Palestine.While many parts of the story were sad there was also an excellent sense of humor through the story. The chapter on circumcision was especially funny (and terrifying) especially as this topic was new to my daughter.I know we can debate Israel/Palestine until the end of time but as a resource to show how these conflicts affect us as children this story was an invaluable resource.
