How wonderful to read this interview, Stu, and how interesting too. You know how fascinated I am with the middle east (Israel/Palestine in particular) so this was great to read.
I will be sure to look up those authors too 🙂

Stu, thanks to you and Raja Shehadeh for this interview. I read Palestinian Walks a couple of years ago and have A Rift In Time on hold at the library. I am adding the other authors to my TBR list.

Thanks for an interesting interview – it made a nice change to hear from someone different, an author who has not been interviewed by several bloggers – or not that I know of anyway.

Thank you Stu and Raja for such a captivating and insightful interview. And how sad but true to read the following: “Western media has by and large assisted in sustaining the negative stereotype of the Arab”.

Great and informative interview, Stu. I have an interest in Palestine myself so am always pleased to find more sources to follow. I do think that Palestine/Israel is one domino in the domino effect that happening in that part of world right now.
