A chance find in a bookshop prompts a pregnant woman to reflect on the journey she’s taking to becoming a mother and who has the right to tell her story.

A chance find in a bookshop prompts a pregnant woman to reflect on the journey she’s taking to becoming a mother, on the journey her family once took when they sought refuge in the United States, and wonder who has the right to tell these stories.

Dima Alzayat’s debut collection, Alligator and Other Stories, was shortlisted for the Dylan Thomas and James Black Memorial Prizes.
