Book Review of The Almond Tree

The Almond Tree
maikai avatar reviewed on + 20 more book reviews


Ichmad is a gifted young boy in a village that must struggle in an occupied land. He wants to better himself and mostly his family. It is a hard struggle with so many barriers but he perseveres and becomes a professor in the United States. This is fiction but many of the Palestinians hate the Jewish and Jewish Israelis hate the Palestinian Arabs. Tension between them is a constant way of live in the area and some parts in the book are very heart-wrenching.
