While there are many tragedies and losses woven throughout the story, there’s also an abundance of love, which beautifully highlights the humanity of the characters. Susan Abulhawa’s writing is powerful, bringing both the pain and the resilience of the characters. It’s also lyrical, making the book not only a moving read but also a literary experience that lingers with you long after you’ve finished.
