Return to Haifa

In "Return to Haifa" Ghassan Kanafani depicts the new awareness that began to crystallize after the 1967 defeat. It is a self-criticism through reconsidering the concept of return and the concept of homeland. So Said S. the returnee to his city where he left his child discovers that "the human being ultimately is a cause," and that Palestine is not about recalling memories, but about creating the future.
