The Palestine Festival of Literature was established in 2008 by authors Ahdaf Soueif, Brigid Keenan, Victoria Brittain and Omar Robert Hamilton. Bringing writers to Palestine from all corners of the globe, it aimed to break the cultural siege imposed by the Israeli military occupation, to strengthen artistic links with the rest of the world, and to reaffirm, in the words of Edward Said, "the power of culture over the culture of power." Celebrating the tenth anniversary of PalFest, This Is Not a Border is a collection of essays, poems, and sketches from some of the world's most distinguished artists, responding to their experiences at this unique festival. Both heartbreaking and hopeful, their gathered work is a testament to the power of literature to promote solidarity and hope in the most desperate of situations. 611 20 $a Palestine Festival of Literature $x History. 611 20 $a Palestine Festival of Literature $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Arab-Israeli conflict $x Literature and the conflict. 650 0 $a Authors $x Political and social views. 650 0 $a Politics and literature. 650 0 $a Literature and society. 650 0 $a Arab-Israeli conflict $v Poetry. 651 0 $a Palestine $v Poetry. 700 1 $a Soueif, Ahdaf, $e editor. 700 1 $a Hamilton, Omar Robert, $d 1984- $e editor. 941 $a 4 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006111653.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20180209010502.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20171107013841.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20171017013610.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EDD71634939111E7A673E95E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
