Description:
Nothing could prepare historian Jean-Pierre Filiu for what he encountered in Gaza.




Noted historian of Gaza, Jean-Pierre Filiu, spent a month there between December and January 2025. This is his up-close, immersive documentary of reality inside the Palestinian enclave.




Filiu is a historian who specialises in Gazan history, and has travelled there regularly since 1980. He also knows the Arabic dialect spoken there. In December 2024, he once again crossed into Gaza, albeit under unimaginably different circumstances- at the time, only two convoys per week were allowed through the border crossings. In January 2025, Filiu returned.




Writing in a lyrical but frank tone, he reveals a portrait of grim reality, delivering a book that is in part war reportage, and in part a narrative of human suffering. People living in Gaza must fight to find fresh water, eat proper meals, move from one city to another, and struggle to obtain medical care if wounded. These quotidian experiences are described in a manner that forces us to confront what is happening in Gaza every single day.








'Jean-Pierre Filiu is not just an authority on Gaza, he was there during the genocide ... A Historian in Gaza is a methodical, sober account of Israel's campaign to visit hell upon the people of Gaza and eliminate all aspects of its civil society. An important, essential book.'

-Joe Sacco, cartoonist and journalist and the author of Palestine, Footnotes in Gaza, and The Once and Future Riot




'This superb book is written by a historian who has experienced many wars and who has

Sixty Bucks? Yep. And I'd buy another one.
Color: silver
OK, I had my doubts. Yes, the iLevel2 is highly-reviewed. And yes, it's really (really) important to have your laptop screen at eye level (get it? iLevel?) But spending 60 dollars on an adjustable laptop stand? Couldn't I just pile up a couple of old books for free? Well, as a contractor once told me when I made a really dumb suggestion, "You COULD do it that way..." The iLevel2's main virtue is that the angle/height adjustment knob is rock-solid, as is the platform. It's just an extremely well-made, solid product. And the adjustment knob, which is on a left-right track on the front of the product, allows you to dial in your laptop's screen height to the millimeter. Result: a totally-custom, ergonomically-friendly setup. Love it.

Underwhelming
Color: silver
Too much hype. It just holds the laptop. Buy something cheaper. The slide adjuster isn’t useful to me at all.

Useful but not perfect
Color: silver
Useful, but typing with laptop perched on it is unsteady. I use a separate keyboard.

Why are people trying to type on a laptop stand?
Color: silver
So the overwhelmingly negative reviews you'll notice for this product specifically surround the "bounciness" of this stand when someone is typing on it—however what is confusing to me is how people are purchasing a laptop stand in theory to optimize their ergonomics, yet also stretching their arms out and elevating them to type on said laptop once it's raised. the point of a laptop riser/stand is to elevate the screen so that you can maintain a more natural posture. One would assume you have an external keyboard to use in conjunction with your laptop once you place it on a RISER, because the idea is to elevate your laptop as a SCREEN and then have a level/flat surface to type on, thereby alleviating any awkward hunching or neck strain looking down or anywhere not naturally eye-level. as it is, it's a perfectly functional and elegant laptop riser. I don't find myself wanting to adjust the height often if ever, but in the one or two instances I experimented with it, found no mechanical issues. It looks nice with Apple hardware and allows me to have my laptop's screen flush with the bottom edge of my additional external monitor, so it serves my purposes well. for people complaining about how it bounces when they type on it ... STOP typing on your laptop's keyboard when you have it elevated on a riser! this defeats the purpose and probably also makes your arms tired—buy an external keyboard!

Nice Valet tray with Qi standard charger USB-C
Color: Best Dad-brown
I like this valet tray. I'm not fond of the message in the main compartment of the valet tray. It means they expect someone to buy it for their dad. I bought it for myself. What I like is the Qi standard compatibility of the wireless charger. It has many advantages over the wireless chargers that are sold. Most are round circles, so your phone teeters on the odd design. Some want to attach to my phone with some magnetic gimmickry. This valet tray takes a different approach. It has a built-in Qi standard wireless charger that's in a rectangular compartment. The USB-C wire that is USB-C at both ends is faster; that's the advantage of USB-C. It carries more power and higher data speed. But the Qi standard disables charging when the phone is at 100%. This avoids overcharging. It's an excellent design. The charging port is built-in to the side of the valet tray. Just the placement of the indicator light is under the phone. A fully charged phone doesn't trigger charging. It avoids overcharging. There is drawback the shallow USB port doesn't allow proper seating of USB C plugs this puts a lot of weight on a barely plugged wire.
