Book Description:
Liberated from Zionist prisons, The Trinity of Fundamentals is a chance for all those in solidarity with the Palestinian struggle to experience Palestine’s national literature and take inspiration from its steadfast tradition of resisting Zionist oppression.
Written in Israeli prison and confiscated by prison guards, The Trinity of Fundamentals is the fictionalized account of former Palestinian prisoner Wisam Rafeedies nine-year experience hiding from the Occupation, now presented in its first-ever English translation. From historical events like the First Intifada and the Gulf War to the deeply intimate moments of life in hiding, this story gives us a glimpse into a life wholly dedicated to the cause of liberation and transformed by revolution.
Masks encouraged and provided.
