Publisher Description

A Resounding Cry for Justice in Palestine. Nabila Yasmeen, now in her eighties, lives a quiet life in Australia, haunted by memories of her childhood in Palestine. In 1948, at the age of six, she and her family were expelled from their village during the Nakba. The weight of that loss shapes her every day.

Told in two timeframes, The Sunbird weaves together Nabila's past and present, painting a poignant portrait of displacement, resilience, and the enduring search for home. This modern parable speaks to the experiences of millions who long to return to their homeland, offering a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit and the importance of cultural memory.
Perfect for readers of historical fiction, Middle Eastern literature, and stories of cultural identity.
