}}A Season of Stones is a 1991 non-fiction book by Helen Winternitz.[1] The book was released in October 1991 through the Atlantic Monthly Press and centers upon Winternitz's time in the West Bank village of Nahalin.[2]

Synopsis

The book follows Winterintz during her stay in Nahalin during the late 1980s. During her stay she is accused of being a spy and at one point is nearly stoned to death. She witnesses land being taken away from the villagers for subsidized Israeli settlements and survives by learning Arabic.{{Citation needed|date=May 2018}}
