“There is something miraculous about Paradiso 17, about the poetry that seems to guide every sentence of this exquisite novel.” —Omar El Akkad
Third Place Books welcomes Hannah Lillith Assadi to our Ravenna store for a conversation about her novel, Paradiso 17. Following a Palestinian man forced to leave his home as a child during the 1948 Nakba, this visionary book explores calamity, connection, human complexity, and the lifelong aftermath of exile.
“Paradiso 17 is a masterclass in diasporic storytelling—gorgeously written and devastatingly necessary.” —Rafe Posey, Third Place Books Ravenna
