About the Author

Khalil Hamad was born in 1954 in Palestine. Two years after his birth, he lost his mother and did not know her features; she didn’t leave a picture. At the age of seven, he was shaken again when he suddenly learned that the woman, he called mother was his aunt. At the age of thirteen, the occupation began, and he saw the first bird hovering in the sky of the village. It was a huge helicopter flying at a low altitude, spreading terror in the place.  He completed his secondary education under the shadow of war and fear. He moved to the city of Bethlehem, where he studied English literature at the university. He traveled to Kuwait to work and then to the United States to complete his studies, where he obtained a master's degree in comparative literature. There, he completed his master's thesis, which included his theory on “interpreting creative energy and the relationship between the orphan and creativity." This topic has always occupied him and continues and was the motivation behind writing his first book, “Let's Destroy the Idols of the Twenty-First Century." He also published a book called “Orphans: Projects of Great People,” in which he confirmed, based on his discovery that there is a relationship between the orphan and creativity at its highest levels, that every orphan is in fact a great project…. He concluded by proposing a national plan to care for the orphans…. the great people of the future.
