Abstract

Isabella Hammad's novel, "Enter Ghost," explores the experiences of Palestinians living in the West Bank and Israel. The novel follows a theater troupe as they stage a production of Hamlet in the West Bank, highlighting the shared struggles and humiliations imposed on Palestinians by Israeli soldiers. Hammad's novel offers an authentic portrayal of Palestinian life, both inside Israel and in the West Bank, and delves into the personal and political complexities faced by the characters. Despite the ongoing turmoil, the troupe perseveres in their artistic endeavors, reflecting the resilience of Palestinians in the face of adversity. [Extracted from the article]
