Nyssa Sylvania asked this question about Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor:
I saw this in on Amazon & I was intrigued. I do have to ask though-will it be, triggering for people who know/are friends with Palestinian refugees? My political stance-I'm Pro-Palestine, but I'm NOT Anti-Israel, if that makes sense? I suppose that means I'm pro two state? I don't know about it to be honest which is why I want to read more. Anyone recommend a book like this but from Palestinians perspective? Thanks!

There are LOTS better books you can read for perspective - one I always recommend for a "balanced" view is "Lemon Tree" by Sandy Tolan. Another excellent book is "Mornings in Jenin" by Susan Abulhawa. For what it's worth, many (including myself) believe the "two state" solution is dead - it's rapidly turning into one (Apartheid) state!
