Features: This book is a gesture of friendship. Arafat visited China fourteen times and maintained close, friendly relations with three generations of Chinese leaders. Like Arafat, Suha holds a special affection for China and accompanied him on friendly visits as his wife. May readers in China enjoy this book. The book authentically records Arafat's nomadic and unstable life in exile; it chronicles the mysterious and perilous journey of this Nobel Peace Prize laureate, who continued to move forward despite the fall of his comrades; it reveals for the first time Suha's secret marriage to the 61-year-old Arafat at the age of 27 during a time of crisis; and it discloses details of their marriage, their daughter Zahwa, and little-known aspects of their family life. Two legendary figures, an extraordinary love story—both are vividly portrayed in this book.
