With a wickedly sharp ear for dialogue and a keen eye for detail, Amiry gives us an original, ironic, and firsthand glimpse into the absurdity--and agony--of life in the Occupied Territories.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Sharon and My Mother-in-Law: Ramallah Diaries | Suad Amiry | Paperback | 9781400096497 | Used: Very Good | Memoir 1644293 (temp: 28)","offer_id":49287674036376,"sku":"1644293","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/7157vQjfCoL.jpg?v=1781895871","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/sharon-and-my-mother-in-law-ramallah-diaries","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
