About this book

After soldiers burn his home and library in the village of Ta‘ara, Mamduh Azzam writes back to everything the fire was meant to erase. Blending literary memoir, personal testimony and lyrical prose, he recalls displaced neighbours, murdered villagers, formative books and the ordinary objects of a writer’s life. From North to South is an intimate meditation on memory, destruction and the possibility of rebuilding a world in language when its physical traces have been reduced to ash.
