Listen to Literati Glitterati August Salon: 'Enter Ghost' by Isabella Hammad52:1128 August 2024

The monthly Literati Glitterati Salon returns to discuss 'Enter Ghost' by Isabella Hammad, a novel about a Palestinian production of Hamlet.

Mel Fulton speaks to novalist Nevo Zisin, illustrator Sofia Sabbagh, and editor Tess Cullity on how the book portrays the power of Palestinian theatre, and the complexity of a book released just months before last October when Palestine was changed drastically by increasing violent conflict and opression from Israeli settlers and IDF forces.
