The Lemon Tree: Sandy Tolan Feisty Side of Fifty

    • Gesellschaft und Kultur

Despite the many upsides of age, a long life means that we boomers have borne witness to a number of horrendous events, incidents of human suffering and wars throughout the world. One conflict that many of us are familiar with but still find difficult to understand is the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestine.

Our guest, Sandy Tolan, has written a touching, real life account of two people who met shortly after the Six-Day War and did so under extraordinary circumstances. The book is entitled, The Lemon Tree: An Arab, a Jew, and the Heart of the Middle East.

This is a significant work with an incredibly profound message. It’s also one you will want to share with your grandchildren. So please plan to tune in for this moving and important conversation.
