Curse of the Achille Lauro : The Story of Abu al-Abbas Hardback
by Reem al-Nimer

- Information
Description
Abu al-Abbas was one of Yasser Arafat's top generals.
His name is forever linked to an operation in 1985 that sparked an international crisis: the hijacking of an Italian cruise liner named the Achille Lauro and the death of Leon Klinghoffer, an elderly American tourist.
This memoir by the wife of Abu al-Abbas recalls an era of Palestinian resistance, the hard realities of a cause that faced impossible odds, and the irony that the death of a single man should outweigh all arguments of right and wrong.
