Biography: 

On completion of my PhD from Lancaster University in 2012, I moved to Palestine where I teach undergraduate courses in English Literature, as well as academic writing and research. My academic interests revolve around contemporary Palestinian and Diasporic literature, with particular focus on Mahmoud Darwish’s poetics of exile and dispossession, and the prose works of Mourid Barghouthi. I write creatively in my free time, and have recently completed an autobiographical novel, ‘The Failed Narcissist’. I am currently writing my second novel, ‘The Expectation of a Flower’.
