Abulhawa writes the tragic lives of a Palestinian family through 6 decades of the Palestinian - Israeli conflict from being forced to leave in 1948 to 2003. The story is fictional but center around historical events and interwoven with real stories.
Your heart will break with every page turned. It is book marked by a a friendship of the grandfather a Palestinian and his friend a Jew. This story breathes life into this still on going horrific conflict.
