An unflinchingly personal insight into the lives of the Palestinian people and of unwavering hope through the diary of a teenage girl in Gaza
As bombs screamed overhead, a young Palestinian teenager grabbed her notebook and wrote, 'If I survive today, I will write everything.' Jana was 13 at the time: studious, precocious and dreaming of one day becoming a doctor.
Through hunger, cold and continuous resettlement, and under the constant threat of death, Jana has kept her promise to write it all down, be it on cardboard, on wet paper, on empty bags of flour. She promises herself that, when she has walls again, she will write on those too.
My Name is Jana is an incredible testament to one teenage girl's will to live and her determination to make her voice heard. It bears witness to all Jana has seen: a little girl asking if her toy is still alive under the rubble, the death of neighbour after neighbour in the tent city in which she now lives, her siblings' hunger and her mother's quiet tears.
Amidst the unspeakable horrors of a war that has claimed the lives of over 20,000 children, Jana writes about the same two dreams again and again: her desire to become a doctor, and for the world to recognise her beautiful, individual existence: 'I am still Jana, and I am still here.'
This is her story.
