Notă biografică

Zoulfa Katouh is a Canadian with Syrian roots based in Switzerland. She is currently pursuing her master's in Drug Sciences and finds Studio Ghibli inspiration in the mountains, lakes, and stars surrounding her. When she’s not talking to herself in the woodland forest, she’s drinking iced coffee, baking aesthetic cookies and cakes, and telling everyone who would listen about how BTS paved the way. A dream of hers is to get Kim Nam-joon to read one of her books. As Long As the Lemon Trees Grow is her debut novel. She invites you to visit her online zoulfakatouh.com.

Caracteristici

Zoulfa on why she wrote the book: 'As Long As the Lemon Trees Grow is my love letter to Syria, Syrians and hijabi girls who rule their own lives. It's also a written testimony to a bewildered world on what is actually happening in Syria, because what is seen is usually only the aftermath - the refugees. I wanted to give a voice to the voiceless, talk about our love for our country and how no one wants to be a refugee. I wanted to write a book that makes readers want to change the world.'

Recenzii

Beautiful, powerful and ringing with emotion, it will stay with you long after you've finished reading.
A searing story of war, loss, family and love, of seeking grace in madness and hope in tragedy ... An absolute must read.
Notable for its evocation of place and time, its rawness and its twist.
As gorgeous as it is groundbreaking ... This book is devastatingly beautiful.
