Bitter Almonds


Omar is an orphaned Palestinian born into chaos and driven by forces beyond his control to find his place in the world. He has only one thing to hold on to: a love that propels him forward. Nadia is young and idealistic. Her attempts to be oblivious to the bleak reality in Damascus are thwarted by her cowardly brother. Will she be able to break out of her traditional social mould to create her own destiny? Heartbreaking and moving, Bitter Almonds is about displacement and exile, family duty and honour, and the universal feelings of love and loss.

Bitter Almonds


A beautiful and moving tribute to the strength of the human spirit and the enduring power of love (Ann Weisgarber, author of Orange shortlisted The Personal History of Rachel Dupree) An enthralling mix of history and Palestinian culture... Riveting (The Lady) Lilas Taha's great gift in Bitter Almonds is to create characters and scenes so richly resonant with life and vitality, that the complicated, lush world of the Middle East feels as tangible and close as any world you are living in. Crucial in our strange days? Perhaps more than anything. (Naomi Shihab Nye, author of HABIBI)
