A powerful socio-political novel, Nisanit, depicts love, compassion,   sacrifice, suffering and lost innocence in an atmosphere of conflict,   hatred and oppression. Nisanit's three entwined narrative lines show the   Arab-Israeli conflicts through the eyes of Shadeed, the Palestinian   guerrilla fighter; David, his Israeli interrogator; and Iman, the young   Arab woman in love with Shadeed. The three main characters are seen as   vicitms of history and geography  who are grappling with the human cost of   the Arab-Israeli and Arab-Arab conflicts.

THE ESCAPE AND OTHER STORIESFive exquisite, evocative stories of human behaviourKatherine Mansfield was born in Wellington, New Zealand,' in 1888, and a number of her stories evoke her New Zealand childhood. A passionate admirer of Chekhov's works, she concentrated on the short-story form, usually capturing a brief but significant moment in the lives of her characters. After several unhappy relationships she married John Middleton Murry in 1918, but she was already suffering from tuberculosis and was to die five years later. Her best-known works are Bliss and The Garden-party.
