The Lemon Tree
The Lemon Tree: An Arab, a Jew, and the Heart of the Middle East (Paperback) by Sandy Tolan

The title of this moving, well-crafted book refers to a tree in the backyard of a home in Ramla, Israel. The home is currently owned by Dalia, a Jewish woman whose family of Holocaust survivors emigrated from Bulgaria. But before Israel gained its independence in 1948, the house belonged to the Palestinian family of Bashir.
