Drinking The Sea At Gaza by Robert Hass
Days and Nights in a Land Under Siege
A ground-level chronicle of daily life in the Gaza Strip in the mid-1990s, showing how closures, military bureaucracy, and failing infrastructure shape every movement and hope. Blending on-the-scene reportage with intimate portraits, it follows families, fishermen, officials, and activists as they navigate checkpoints, water and electricity shortages, economic isolation, and the fraught aftermath of the Oslo accords. The result is a piercing look at the entanglement of occupation, corruption, and resistance—and the stubborn resilience of ordinary people living under prolonged siege.
