"This is the first-ever collection of plays by Palestinian-Irish playwright Hannah Khalil, the first woman of Arab heritage to have a main-stage play at the RSC. It encompasses a decade's worth of plays exploring her Arab heritage, drawing on family histories as well as significant events in the Arab world. They were all written during a period that included the end of the war in Iraq, the intensification of the occupation of Palestine and the birth and disillusion of the so-called 'Arab Spring'. The plays included are set in both a historical and modern context. They include a feminist take on 1,001 Nights and the Scheherazade story; an exploration of Gertrude Bell, the Museum in Baghdad and Britain's role in the birth of the Iraw; plus two plays looking at the Palestinian experience, one based on a family living through the creation of the State of Israel in 1948, the other an epic collage that moves in time frm 1948 to the present day. This anthology also includes a radio play set in contemporary Dubai and a monologue about the power and legacy of artefacts."--Back cover.
