⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I would … reread many of the stories, because they are stunning testaments to ‘sumud’. Fugitive Dreams is a book of hope, determination, and forgiveness.” — Greta Berlin, Co-Founder, Free Gaza Movement
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Fugitive Dreams is one of the few books that would make a compelling read even for those of us very familiar with the question of Palestine.” — Mondoweiss
