Minor Detail by Adania Shibli

Minor Detail by Adania Shibli

August 1949. An Israeli platoon commander occupies a camp in the Negev. His men capture a Bedouin girl, and over several days something is done to her that the novel records in flat, procedural detail — the heat, the dog, the sand, the routine.

Decades later a woman in Ramallah reads a footnote about the incident and notices it happened exactly twenty-five years before she was born. She sets out across checkpoints with borrowed papers to find the place, and the second half's nervous, digressive voice is the exact opposite of the first half's calm.

Shortlisted for the International Booker and the National Book Award. Under a hundred and twenty pages.
