Set against the backdrop of the formative conflict in the Middle East, 'Minor Detail' interweaves two haunting stories separated by decades but connected by a thread of an enduring atrocity. The novel begins in the summer of 1949, as Israeli soldiers carry out an execution of Bedouin in the Negev desert, capturing and assaulting a young Palestinian girl before ending her life. Fast forward to contemporary times, a woman in Ramallah becomes intensely entwined with the elusive truths of this historical crime, one that coincidentally shares the date of her birth. As she investigates, the past and present converge, offering a sharp, poignant exploration of the incessant echoes of violence and the strenuous pursuit of remembrance amidst a landscape scarred by the perennial narrative of displacement and survival.
