About Product
- Author :Alesandra Amorello
- In the blink of an eye, everything changed. People were leaving their homes and taking along anything they could carry.
- They took hold of their memories and the keys to their homes. But, the orange trees, they couldn’t carry them; they only preserved its aromatic scent in their hearts.

Description
- In 1948, Palestine was occupied, and its people sought refuge in various parts of the world. However, those who were forcibly displaced from the Palestinian cities and villages carried home in their hearts and memories.
- With every day that passes by, the elderly think of their homes and tell their grandchildren stories about it, passing on their dream of return from one generation to the next.
- This book raises a poignant humanitarian issue, the occupation of a land, the displacement of its people, and it embodies resistance to the occupation.
- The determination to endure is symbolically encapsulated in the hoopoe bird figure, which insisted on keeping its homeland’s orange orchards alive, collecting its seeds, and scattering them on the ground.
- The story also sheds immense light on the remarkable figure, Ghassan Kanafani, who left a significant mark on the Palestinian literature.
