By living among, rather than just reporting upon the people of Palestine, Hilda Reilly embedded herself in one of the most widely reported and long-standing struggles in the world in a way that few have. Immersed in the everyday life of her work and those around her, and through the many encounters and conversations with a wide range of Palestinians, Hilda gives us an insight into the people behind the politics and the realities of the conflict. Prickly Pears of Palestine provides a human face to the realities of life in Palestine.
