Sydney Writers Festival: Stories of Palestine

“If you were writing your life, Baba, where would your story begin?” — Cactus Pear for My Beloved

Palestinian and Lebanese diaspora writers take to the stage for a special event of reflection and connection.

Sharing their stories of home, memory and identity are Lebanese Australian writer and editor Sara Haddad (The Sunbird), Lebanese Palestinian poet and editor Hasib Hourani (rock flight) and Palestinian Australian author, playwright and poet Samah Sabawi (Cactus Pear for My Beloved).

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with their powerful stories in this moving and unforgettable conversation, led by Australian Palestinian writer Micaela Sahhar.
