Book of Wills

'To write a will under siege is not surrender - it's defiance. It says: I existed. I felt. I belonged. I am not yours to erase.' - Reem Ghanayem. In Book of Wills, eighteen Gazan writers share their last will and testament. Several of the writers who contributed to this collection - including Rifaat Al-Ara'ir, whose poem 'If I Must Die' brought home the realities of war to so many - have since been killed. A profound exploration of the written word as an act of resistance, Book of Wills commemorates the lives and memories of the Gazan people, ensuring their stories are immortalised.
