Description
Forgotten is a poignant journey through Palestine’s disappearing heritage, written by Raja Shehadeh and Penny Johnson. The authors traverse the land to uncover hidden places and lost memorials that have been systematically erased from maps and memory. Through careful research and on-the-ground exploration, they document demolished villages, abandoned sites, and forgotten communities whose histories risk being lost forever.
This powerful work examines how landscape and memory intersect in Palestine, revealing the human stories behind the physical ruins. The book combines historical investigation with personal narrative, offering readers an intimate understanding of Palestinian identity and resilience. Shehadeh and Johnson’s documentation serves as both a historical record and a testimony to the importance of preserving cultural memory in contested spaces.
