The Longing of the Stranger Whose Path Has Been Broken - Rehab Eldalil | Emotional Poetry Collection for Self-Reflection & Healing | Perfect for Book Clubs, Gifts & Personal Growth

Product Description

"This book has been almost 10 years in the making. The project started out as my process to reconnect to my Bedouin ancestry then turned into an opportunity to connect, learn from and work with the community. Along the way my visual voice has unearthed. The Longing Of The Stranger Whose Path Has Been Broken is a dance, a conversation with the Sinai Bedouin community as we explore what it means to belong, what is this indescribable connection to the land that we all long for and the indigenous experience that is filled with both sorrow and celebration. This book is an alternative Bedouin archive woven by the community themselves, it is an experience that invites readers to look inwards as much as outwards to question the notion of belonging." 

- Rehab Eldalil
