Prima di Lasciarsi (Before We Say Goodbye), her first novel, is based on the true story of the Kiryat HaYovel supermarket bombing in Jerusalem, committed by Ayat al-Akhras, a seventeen-year-old Palestinian girl from the Dheisheh refugee camp.

Despite the very short time span – seven hours – seen from the points of view of the different characters, the book tries to portray the complex reality between Israel and Palestine.

In 2008 the book's publication in both Arabic and Hebrew was sponsored by Amnesty International and employed by Israeli colleges and human rights organizations working in Israel and the Palestinian Territories as an educational tool.

[26] Il garbuglio di Garlasco, published in 2022 in Italy, retraces the story of Alberto Stasi, convicted for the murder of his girlfriend Chiara Poggi, which took place when he was 23 and she was 26.

The novel Tu che conosci gli uomini narrates the love between a teenager in search of his sexual identity and a young prostitute.
