Text in Arabic. A group of disparate individuals, two of whom are Palestinian adolescents who have lost their legs in Israeli bomb strikes, is preparing to summit Mount Kilimanjaro. They have nothing and everything in common. Hailing from Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt and America, the characters test the limits of their physical and emotional strengths to prove to themselves that they can transcend their strife-ridden histories and accomplish the unexpected. Nasrallahs work is a page-turning, nail-biting tale of adventure, as well as an ode to the resilience of the human spirit.

Born 1954 in Wihdat refugee camp in Amman, Jordan, Ibrahim Nasrallah is a Jordanian-Palestinian poet, novelist, painter and photographer. He was shortlisted for the 2009 International Prize for Arab Fiction in 2009 for his novel Zaman Al-Khoyoul Al-Baydhaa' (Time of White Horses). A prolific writer, Nasrallah has authored more than a dozen novels and a dozen poetry collections. Four of his novels have been translated into English: Prairies of Fever, Inside the Night, Time of White Horses, Lanterns of the King of Galilee. In addition to English, his novels have been translated into Italian, Danish and other languages. His 2014 trip summiting Mount Kilimanjaro was the first to include participation of an Arab author and came in support of charity work for Palestinian and Arab children in need of medical care.
