In his memoir Romeo and Juliet in Palestine: Teaching Under Occupation

(2015), Tom Sperlinger, a reader in English literature and community

engagement at the University of Bristol, looks back on a semester he

spent teaching English literature at Al-Quds University in the occupied

West Bank. This book includes stories that Sperlinger’s students narrated

to him about what he calls the ‘extraordinary creativity, courage and

humour’ of Palestinians living in the occupied West Bank as well as some

of his first-hand experiences there (137). While the author makes clear

Romeo and Juliet in Palestine is not intended as a general account of life

in Palestine or at the aforementioned university, it reflects a portion of a

Palestinian reality and the nature of the life of the Palestinian university

student.
