About Ghassan Kanafani
Ghassan Kanafani, (born 1936, martyred 1972, Beirut), was a Palestinian art-teacher, novelist, sculptor, literary critic, newspaper editor, propagandist, historian, political actor and spokesperson for the PFLP - the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. His constant study and deployment of artistic and cultural forms testifies to culture as a key battleground of the anti-colonial struggle. His study, On Zionist Literature, excavates the history of Zionism’s pioneering use of literary fiction in the development of political Zionism.
