Ida in the Middle with Nora Murad
Join Print in welcoming Nora Murad to Print to talk about her Young Adult novel, IDA IN THE MIDDLE, and to discuss censorship of Palestinians and the importance of uplifting Palestinian narratives. Print seeks to discuss and engage with the way in which readers, librarians and teachers learn to see what’s not there and who is being left out of the conversation. This event is co-presented by Jewish Voice for Peace Maine.
“Ida, a Palestinian-American girl, eats a magic olive that takes her to the life she might have had in her parents’ village near Jerusalem. An important coming of age story that explores identity, place, voice, and belonging.”
