This article is a question of analyzing the points of view in the Palestinian novel, Men in the Sun, by Ghassan Kanafani. The novel recounts the itinerary of three Palestinian travelers to Kuwait, where they were dead due to suffocation in a cistern. The study of the three travelers’ points of view helps in understanding their motives to do it. The study uncovers also the analysis of the points of view of the smugglers who take advantage of the poverty of the occupied Palestine people. The divergence between their points of view and the one of the three Palestinians reflects the antagonisms that oppose them. The three travelers recount in detail their past and present. After their accidental death, the final part of the novel reveals the Palestinian smugglers ' point of view by asking a crucial question: Why they did not knock on the cistern to get help?
