Nisma is like any other 16-year-old. She goes
to school, fights with her brothers, and loves her grandmother, Nazik.
But, life for Nisma isn’t as simple as boys and books: Nisma is an Islamic
Palestinian in Israel, and her new friend, Hannah, is a Zionist.
When Hannah’s mother is attacked and Nisma
invites the pair to live in her family home, she has no idea of the chain of
events that she has set in motion. What unfolds will show Nisma that in a
country shrouded by corruption, bigotry, and segregation, love and compassion is
her best chance at survival.
A love letter to the Palestinian people, Mariam El Houli’s The Olive
Tree is a heartbreaking and gripping debut – a tale of friendship,
strength, and loss, and the fatal consequences systematic prejudice can have on
a country’s people.
