TPAN

A bimonthly book club centred on Palestinian literary excellence

Cost: Free, but books sourced at own cost

Run time: 1.5 hours

Capacity: 12 participants

First book selection: Enter Ghost by Isabella Hammad

*We recommend that participants have finished at least 80% of the book by the meetup date in order to affectively engage in discussions. There is no rule on how you read the book (physical, e-book or audiobook are all acceptable forms of reading)

Enter Ghost

After years away from her family's homeland, and reeling from a disastrous love affair, actress Sonia Nasir returns to Haifa to visit her older sister Haneen. On her return, she finds her relationship to Palestine is fragile, both bone-deep and new. When Sonia meets the charismatic and candid Mariam, a local director, she joins a production of Hamlet in the West Bank.

Where to get it: 

Enter Ghost is available at the Tasmanian state library in hardcopy (limited numbers) or as an audiobook. The book is available for purchase online, unfortunately most local bookshops are out of stock. Fullers Bookshop have estimated they will receive a restock in late March (if you're a fast reader!)
