Book description
Tarbush was born in British Mandate Palestine. As an infant, he and his family are forced to evacuate their village together with its entire population, after the Zionist victory that led to the establishment of the State of Israel. As now landless refugees in the West Bank, the family sinks into poverty. When the teenage Palestinian refugee announced to his parents that he wanted to take a bus to visit relatives in Jordan for a few days, little did they know he would actually set off on a one-year hitchhiking journey to Europe, where he would eventually become a highly successful international banker and a key behind-the-scenes promoter of the Palestinian cause. In My Palestine, Tarbush combines poignant personal memoir with incisive political and economic commentary on the tumultuous events that shaped the history of Israel, Palestine, and the modern Middle East.

Noise reduction on ListenBook Pro is impressive. My recordings sound crystal clear. Great for both casual listening and studying. The audio filters are a nice touch. AirDrop sharing makes it easy to share audiobooks. Great feature! Downloading over WiFi is quick and efficient. Saves a lot of time. This audiobook was neither good nor bad - simply average. The narrator's delivery was professional but uninspired, and the recording quality was clean though not exceptional. It provided satisfactory entertainment without standing out from similar titles.

Audiobooks have made long flights feel like a breeze – a true travel essential. This app's convenience has made reading a priority in my busy schedule. ListenBook’s playback is smooth and reliable. I never have issues with audio quality. Solid performance, but not outstanding. The narrator did a fine job, though their tone was a bit monotonous at times.
