SUMMARY:Brown Bag Books - The Lemon Tree: An Arab\, a Jew\, and the Heart o
 f the Middle East
DESCRIPTION:Brown Bag Books - The Lemon Tree: An Arab\, a Jew\, and the Hea
 rt of the Middle East  \n\nThe October Brown Bag Books book is "The Lemon 
 Tree:  An Arab\, a Jew \, and the Heart of the Middle East" by Sandy Tola
 n\, Non Fiction\n\n \nIn 1967\, Bashir Khairi\, a 25 yr old Palestinian
 \, journeyed to Israel with the goal of seeing the beloved stone house wit
 h the lemon tree behind it that he and his family had fled 19 years earli
 er. To his surprise\, when he found the house he was greeted by Dalia Eshk
 enazi Landau\, a 19 yr old  Israeli college student\, whose family fled
  Europe for Israel following the Holocaust. On the stoop of their shared h
 ome\, Dalia and Bashir began a rare friendship\, forged in the aftermath o
 f war and tested over the next half-century in ways that neither could ima
 gine on that summer day in 1967. Tolan brings the Israeli-Palestinian con
 flict down to its most human level\, demonstrating that even amid the blea
 kest political realities there exist stories of hope and transformation.\n
