Tala Abou Dabousa

My Name Is Mohamed

History & Biography

“Mohamed Hammoud writes with a clarity and tenderness that stay with you long after the final page. His memoir is a powerful meditation on identity, migration, and the quiet resilience required to rebuild a sense of home after displacement. What moved me most is his ability to hold both pain and possibility with such honesty. This book is not only beautifully written, but it's also deeply human.”
