A Palestinian prisoner's story

This is an innovatively written story by Noureddin, who was born in Jabalia refugee camp in Ghaza.

It's a brave and powerful piece of wriitng that shows the fragmenting and self-alienating experience of being locked up all day for your political beliefs. When I read this story, I wondered about the extreme circumstances in which dignity and political belief might become as important for a person as life itself. An interesting question for the times in which we find ourselves?
