“Blankets become Jackets” and Selected Stories of A Life Blessed by Suffering captures the story behind the man. Dubbed the godfather of accounting Talal Abu-Ghazaleh who was driven from being a refugee to become a world leader in the business world. Motivated by the hardships of his people-the Palestinians- who are still suffering from Israeli occupation, he built a business empire recognized worldwide. From being a young boy wearing a jacket made by his mother from a blanket to a global figure who placed his potential at the service of the world around him despite all challenges. This is a powerful and descriptive vision by a person who believed in a better future more than a gloomy past.
