about me

My photo
khulud khamis
Hi, I'm khulud khamis, a Palestinian feminist writer, born to a Slovak mother and a Palestinian father. Growing up in two countries and between two cultures, my identity is composed of both, and my multicultural background affects my writing. I write fiction, poetry and non-fiction fragments. My first novel, “Haifa Fragments,” was published in 2015 by Spinifex Press (Australia), New Internationalist (UK), and translated into Italian and Turkish. I hold a Master’s degree in English Literature from the University of Haifa. The title of my MA thesis is: "A Space of Her Own: Sexuality, Silence and Negotiating Spaces in Homer's Odyssey and Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. A Feminist Reading." In my fiction, poetry, as well as non-fiction, I deal with political and social issues such as identity, belonging, racism and discrimination, art as political resistance, hard-core social taboos in the Palestinian society, and issues affecting women and the LGBTQI community, all from a feminist perspective. I’m a feminist activist, member of the feminist organization Isha L’Isha – Haifa Feminist Center.
