Sami ‘Amr’s diary entries explore the continuity of his personal life in Hebron during the transitional period from World War II under the British Mandate to the 1948-1949 period when the war in Palestine was ending. Sami also tries to negotiate the new, but uncertain, political situation known as the “Dual Era” when both Jordan and Egypt claim rule over Hebron.
