Welcome to the inaugural reading of the Mondoweiss Book Club. As we teased, our first selection we will be read this month is Susan Abulhawa’s third novel, “Against the Loveless World.”

Phil Weiss interviews Susan Abulhawa about her new novel Against the Loveless World. “My exile and the destruction of my family and the destruction of everything, of our whole world, has defined my whole life in so many ways and in very personal ways,” says Abulhawa.
