Le chiavi di casa. Un diario da Gaza

Sami al-Ajrami, a Palestinian journalist born in Gaza, has been working and writing for years from the Gaza Strip, collaborating with many international media outlets. In these months of war, he has been the only voice from inside Gaza reporting the conflict for the Italian press. He evacuated from Gaza City with his wife, daughters, and elderly parents, bearing witness to the Palestinian drama. He wrote a journal for the daily newspaper La Repubblica, recounting the atrocities and suffering, the fear and powerlessness of those who experience the war firsthand; he delivered the chronicle of an immense tragedy, but also a precious and personal portrait of daily life in the Gaza Strip. Sami al-Ajrami, currently a refugee in Egypt, remains in contact with those who stayed in Gaza and hasn’t interrupted his reporting, which now finds a new space in the unprecedented pages of this book.
