Drinking the Sea at Gaza by Amira Hass

To Israel and most of the world, the Gaza Strip is a squalid and overpopulated area beyond rescue, a violent scar on the face of the earth. In 1993 Amira Hass, a young Israeli woman reporter, drove to Gaza to cover a story - and stayed, a radical step for any foreign correspondent, let alone an Israeli Jewish woman. For the last four years she has made her home in Gaza city, reporting from its gutted streets and destitute refugee camps. Here she reveals the ongoing dimensions of the Palestian tragedy.
