Penny Johnson is a founding member of the Institute of Women’s Studies at Birzeit University and has published articles and edited a number of important books on Palestine. Her latest book, Forgotten: Searching for Palestine’s Hidden Places and Lost Memorials, written with awyer, writer, and human rights activist Raja Shehadeh explores the landscape of Israel and Palestine to show how monuments which have been created, maintained, or neglected map the political and cultural struggles which fragment the land today.
