Abstract
This study aims at identifying the method by which the novelist Hassan Hamid
addressed the issue of identity and alienation in his literary novels.
The researcher; thus, has carried out an analytical technical study of a number of
Hamid’s narratives, in an attempt to provide a clear vision similar to his interest in this
subject and its impact on the Palestinian situation.
The study has addressed the concept and the manifestation of identity in four novels of
Hassan Hamid, in a chorological order, namely: (Come! Lets’ Fly Autumn Leaves),
(Bridge of Jacob’s Girls), (A River in Winter’s Shirts) and (Ramallah City).
Then, the researcher has addressed the concept and the manifestation of alienation in
two novels of the author Hassan Hamid, namely: (Come! Lets’ Fly Autumn Leaves) and
(A River in Winter’s Shirts).
The technical study has also highlighted several technical aspects of the narrative
elements of Hasan Hamid’s novels, and has also presented them in a realistic and literary
language.
The study found out that the Palestinian national identity is a clear theme in Hamid’s
novels, and that the presentiments of exile and alienation are clearly manifested in these
novels which the author has successfully addressed.
Hassan Hamid’s novels are characterized by highly poetic language and rich
description, and he also balanced between the content and artistic form of his novels.
