The Gazan writer brings two types of tales. As the editor of The Book of Gaza he presents a selection of his own and other short stories by Palestinian writers living in Gaza; as the author of The Drone Eats With Me he reads from his diaries, written in Gaza during the recent war. Saif was born in the Jabilya refugee camp in Gaza in 1973. He is the author of four novels and many short stories.
‘Parts of this book are so beautifully written that you have to stop and reread the sentences. He creates beauty out of an ugly situation’ Fran Slater, Bookmunch
