  1. 1. The Lord

    Set during the 1936 Arab Revolt in Mandatory Palestine, The Lord follows Tareq, a young man from Jaffa whose travels and apparent miracles win him a following and draw the attention of the British authorities. The story is framed by Miss Alice Rhodes, an English missionary who once taught him and later recounts his life, and by the British intelligence officer determined to stop him. The novel offers an intimate, atmospheric portrait of Palestinian society and the tensions of colonial rule without revealing key outcomes.
