About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

It is the year 2000 when Dinah, a Jewish teenager from London, arrives in Israel with her family. Still reeling from the death of her beloved dad, the idea of having to start all over again daunts her. Dinah isn’t quite sure what to make of this seemingly pristine place: her new life seems soulless and suffocating.

Another teenager, Safa, watches Dinah settle in. A fourteen-year-old Palestinian who was shot and killed decades ago in the Six Day War, Safa is caught in a limbo which she calls the ‘In-Between’. She is unable to fully pass on without knowing what happened to her younger sister, Nur, who is still alive somewhere. Thirty-three years after her death, the possibility of finding her is suddenly within reach – but she needs Dinah to help her.

Alternating between past and present, and between Safa and Dinah, Ever Land is a gripping and powerful story that sheds light on the ongoing occupation of Palestine. It is a tale of belonging and identity, of devastation and displacement and – ultimately – of the enduring universality of humanity and love.

Critic reviews

This is a brave book, researched with diligence and written with heartfelt sincerity. Amy Abdelnoor has produced a remarkable story that shines a powerful light on one of the most tragic conflicts of our time. It rings with truth. (Elizabeth Laird)
Cleverly conceived and brilliantly engaging . . . a powerful novel. Read this. (Priscilla Morris)
Ambitious and complex but handled with impressive ease (Rose Tremain)
A vital tale about the biggest humanitarian crisis of our times. Abdelnoor’s novel masterfully interweaves two women’s lives in modern Palestine, decades apart, to portray true belonging in a land whose past will not be forgotten. For anyone looking to really understand the Israeli occupation of Palestine, this is the book. (Michael Warren, author of 'The Cuckoo's Lea')
A tender tale of modern Palestine, it should be read by anyone who wants to learn about the great tragedy of our age. (Alexandra Pringle)
Amy Abdelnoor's novel tells the story of the Middle East in a way that we might not find in our newspapers or on our computer screens. Ever Land is a piercing story that feels personal, necessary and handmade. (Colum McCann)
Ever Land is an urgent and timely story of how hearts, minds and lives of all young people are constrained and brutally misshapen to reproduce the oppressive systems into which we are born without prior choice. With a bold leap of imaginative good faith Abdelnoor fuses the atoms of occupied and occupier, past and present, living and dead souls, in an engrossing and often heart-stopping story of ethical, political and sexual awakening that is both page-turning and profound. (Rachel Holmes)
