Adania Shibli: En liten detaljOversatt fra arabisk av Oda Myran WinsnesEn litterær perle fra Palestina med stor politisk og moralsk sprengkraft.Denne beskjedne romanen på drøyt hundre sider åpner med en skildring fra sommeren 1949. Scenen er den ugjestmilde Negev-ørkenen i det sørlige Israel, ett år etter Nakba, den «palestinske katastrofen» da anslagsvis 700 000 palestinske arabere ble fordrevet av den unge israelske staten. Under ledelse av en halvgal offiser tar israelske sikkerhetsstyrker livet av en bosetning med beduiner. Blant ofrene er en tenåringsjente som blir voldtatt og drept og begravet i sanden. Shibli skildrer disse voldshandlingene med en språklig sparsommelighet og nøkternhet som gjør dem desto mer uhyggelige og fantasieggende.Mange år senere blir en ung kvinne i Ramallah besatt av denne «lille detaljen» i historien da hun oppdager en notis om den i avisen. Hun gripes ikke bare av selve den grufulle forbrytelsen, men også av det faktum at den fant sted på dagen 25 år etter at hun selv ble født. Kvinnen legger ut på en risikabel road trip sørover mot Negev, langt bortenfor områdene som ID-kortet gir henne adgang til, og innleder sin egen etterforskning for å oppklare hva som skjedde den gangen i ørkenen. Det skal få katastrofale følger.Med sin knappe og treffsikre prosa går Adania Shibli til kjernen av den palestinske opplevelsen av tap og berøvelse, av et liv under okkupasjon. På elegant og sømløst vis lar forfatteren de to delene av romanen overlappe hverandre og sammen kaste lys over en nåtid som aldri slutter å hjemsøkes av fortiden.Det er viktig å understreke at selv om den bygger på historiske hendelser og tar klart stilling i Palestina-konflikten, er ikke En liten detalj hverken sakprosa eller politisk agiterende. Den søker ikke å avdekke skjulte sannheter eller å sørge for at rettferdigheten skal skje fyllest. Den er snarere en vakker og nærmest resignert litterær meditasjon over historiens gjentakelser, fortidens tilbakevendende traumer.«Adania Shibli tar en sjanse når hun overlater vår tilgang til romanens sentrale hendelse - voldtekten og drapet på en ung beduinerkvinne - til to dypt selvopptatte fortellere - en israelsk psykopat og en palestinsk amatørdetektiv med klare autistiske trekk - men hennes indirekte metode rettferdiggjøres til fulle idet boken når sin nervepirrende slutt.» - J.M. Coetzee«Terroren Shibli maner frem, tiltar langsomt, ulmende, helt til den gløder på siden ... En tvers igjennom farlig og overveldende god bok.» - The Guardian
