Forgotten: Searching for Palestine’s Hidden Places and Lost Memorials

“Forgotten constitutes a different way – beautiful, poetic, and highly evocative despite its great seriousness – of showing the consequences of war. Not only its immediate wreckage, but also its erasure of memory and the fragmentation of a territory, which here appear almost as the effects of a predetermined plan, and which, in some respects, are chilling. It is a discrete but deeply gripping book, because it shows that the most enduring political violence is not always that which strikes the body directly, but that which attacks the invisible continuities without which a people cannot truly remain itself. ”
