The Age of Olive Trees is the debut pamphlet by Haia Mohammed, a 22-year-old poet and student in Gaza, living through the ongoing genocide.
“Haia Mohammed’s poems feel to me like the most important work being written in the world today. They are staggeringly impactful in their honesty, strength and beauty. The people of Gaza, as Haia says, are different; they write poems that defy death. These pieces are miracles of language and spirit, they are humanity at its best and most resilient.” — Max Porter
