'The earth doesn't tell its secrets' -- his father once said
" 'The Earth Doesn't Tell Its Secrets' --- His Father Once Said " is a novel that revolves around the narrator's fascination with the long-running myth of Palestine's first museum. After each attempt to visit such a museum ends in failure, each proposal seems to float between fact and fiction. "The first Palestiniam museum" has assumed different forms throughout the years - a collection with no space, a temporary room that would hold a single artwork, a museum conceived as an artwork and a museum building with no collection. After all the time spent obsessing over the museum, the narrator comes to see its future in the living rooms of family, friends and acquaintances. The novel assembles material based on collections found or inspired by people's houses. --Publisher
