Aug 20, 2026 - Re-reading Ghassan Kanafani Today

When: August 20th, 7pm
Where: Another Story Bookshop, 315 Roncesvalles Ave

Even before his assassination in 1972, Ghassan Kanafani was one of the Palestinian liberation movements most influential leaders and intellectuals. Though initially known outside Arabic reading publics as a novelist, recent translations of his works of political analysis, culture critique and revolutionary history have made Kanafani's interventions accessible to a much broader public.

Join us for this event with Hazem Jamjoum, one of Kanafani's translators, for a discussion on the life and work of this revolutionary intellectual, and what they might contribute to our struggles against fascism and empire today.
