 e Jordan is set in a kibbutz in 1970s Israel. Together\, they will discuss
  the background and history of the conflict\, share their experiences of l

 s://vimeo.com/1117321295/e8621ac215 Reviews of A History of Palestine in F
 ive Fruits “A unique introduction … even if your library were full of 
 books on Palestine\, it would be remiss to be without this extraordinary a
 nd original book” Professor Ilan Pappé “This book offers a powerful a
 nd comprehensive history of Palestine\, told through the stories of five f
 ruits that have endured and resisted colonial violence.” Nadia Naser-Naj
 jab\, Co-Director of European Centre for Palestine Studies\, University of
  Exeter Reviews of Night Swimming in the Jordan “A special\, unusual boo
 k. I love the way it brings politics and the personal together so sensuall
 y…it has helped me understand and talk further with Jewish friends and p
 eople I love who work for peace for Palestinians.” Sarah Hopkins\, forme
 r fiction editor of Spare Rib magazine “Absolutely fascinating….a grea
 t exploration of Israeli politics as well – a reminder that there have a
 lways been Israelis who advocated for Palestinian rights.” Rachel Evans 
 Proceeds from this event will go to the Mines Advisory Group and the Hands
  Up Project.Night Swimming in the Jordan is a newly published novel by Ya'
 ara Lahav Gregory that links Devon with the Middle East. Ya'ara will talk 
 about growing up in a kibbutz in Israel during the late 1960s and 70s. She
  has lived in Devon for over 30 years – the narrative to some extent mir
 rors her own journey. The novel is a coming of age love story which also t
 akes in broader themes including war\, displacement and the effect of ideo
 logy on individuals and relationships.Join OnlineThis event will be live s
