Palfest Bookshelf: UK subscription

By joining the PalFest Bookshelf you’ll be giving critical support to daring new publishing on Palestine – crucial in this moment of increased censorship.

Subscribers receive 6 books per year – every other month – each with a special extra, along with invitations to book club conversations with authors.

October & November 2025:

The October/November Bookshelf bundle includes two new releases:

Palestine is Everywhere  is an anthology of new writing brilliantly assembled by Skye Arundhati Thomas and Edwin Nasr which features, among essays, poetry, photography and reportage, letters from prison written by PalFest author Alaa Abd el-Fattah – who has just been released after twelve years.

Mahmoud al-Shaer is a writer and editor who played a central role developing young writers’ voices in Gaza, before his life’s work was destroyed by Israel. He remains caught in Gaza, and A Year on the Abyss of Genocide collects his diaries published on his GoFundMe.
