Originally published in 1962, "Men in the Sun" tells the story of three Palestinian refugees who take on a clandestine, humiliating and dangerous journey from refugee camps in Iraq to find work in Kuwait. The refugees belong to three generations of men who have endured the loss of their homeland, Palestine, and alternate between despair, hope and resilience as the journey unfolds. While themes of exile, resistance, displacement and masculinity seem prominent, Kanafani demands we ask urgent political questions about the aftermaths of the Nakba of 1948: what could have been done? Why were Palestinians abandoned without any allies?  Why is everybody immune to Palestinian suffering?
