The Blue Between Sky and Water

@brittarnhild

The last century´s history of the Palestinian people, told through the eyes of a family and the author Susan Abulhawa. Told in a way which makes us hate the conflict in the Middle East, not its people. Fiction, though also with real people knitted in, like the Norwegian doctor Mats Gilberg. And real historical event. A book which you c an´t put down when you start reading it. A book which makes you cry, a book which makes you smile, laugh. A book filled with love. And with hope for the future, even in a land, among a people where love has been abandoned a long time ago.

The storyteller in the book is Khaled, a young Palestinian boy. His story is the story of his family. The story of four generations of women.

 

If you are wondering which book to read next, don´t wonder any more. The Blue Between Sky and Water is THE book.
