Through critical textual analysis of the trauma narratives for young readers written in English on political conflicts and violation of humanitarian values, this book recovers the response to trauma from the margins of the survivor spectrum. By focusing on the experiences of Syrian and Palestinian children, it elucidates how their stories are often portrayed in a manner that not only emphasizes their resilience but also underscores the gravity of the experience. This book sheds light on the multifaceted impact of the conflict on the region and the psychological toll it takes on the younger generation through the representation of their experiences in these narratives. The harrowing experiences of refugees, war victims, and displaced persons from non-Western countries often lack a voice in the advancement of the discourse in trauma. The theoretical approach utilized in this research thus employs child and adolescent psychoanalysis to extend the existing approach to trauma studies, and bring the neglected and under-represented trauma narratives to the fore. Many of the atrocities discussed in this book continue in the present times, which makes the study of this subject matter even more vital. The ongoing war between Israel and Hamas that has killed thousands of people in the region within a few days makes this research even more pertinent and urgent as the widespread violence and suffering has echoed the trauma that the region has undergone in the past decades.
