Board member Sari Nusseibeh's book Once Upon A Country: A Palestinian Life has been reviewed in two separate articles by the New York Times and one in the Los Angeles Times. Nusseibeh's personal history is, in some ways, a microcosm of the struggle between Israelis and Palestinians that has embroiled the Middle East for generations; the reviews of Once Upon a Country are as much profiles of Nusseibeh as they are literary reviews.
