Lo spirito di un luogo è fatto dalle persone che lo abitano, dalle storie che si intersecano nelle sue strade. E questo vale in modo particolare per la Palestina, custode di passaggi storici epocali e teatro di una delle più dolorose pagine di storia contemporanea. Francesca Albanese, la Relatrice speciale ONU sul territorio palestinese occupato, una delle persone più competenti e autorevoli sullo status giuridico e sulla situazione dei palestinesi - amata (o odiata) in tutto il mondo per l'integrità e la passione con cui si batte in favore dei diritti di un popolo troppo a lungo vessato - qui ci offre storie che intrecciano informazioni, riflessioni, emozioni e vicende intime.
