This month's selection is one of the winners of the January free read (a book set in a country that you've never been to). The book is: "The Words of My Father: Love and Pain in Palestine" by Yousef Bashir.

About the book:
A Palestinian-American activist recalls his adolescence in Gaza during the Second Intifada, and how he made a strong commitment to peace in the face of devastating brutality in this moving, candid, and transformative memoir that reminds us of the importance of looking beyond prejudice, anger, and fear.
