«Jamal Assadi is giving Palestinian voices a new life. By introducing Palestinian writers to a wider readership in the English language, he is enabling them to tell their own stories – the stories of their plight, dreams, exploitation, alienation, and marginalization. These voices document the Palestinian tale over the last sixty years. They have been imprisoned in the language of exile. The writers of these stories can now speak with a fresh voice and tell the tale of their people.» (Ibrahim Darwish, Palestinian Writer and Academic, London)
