the next he is swept away into a life of exile and rage. Seeking a
new beginning in swinging-'60s London, Salim falls in love with
Jude. The only problem? Jude is Jewish. A captivating story about
love and loss, Ishmael's Oranges follows the story of two families
spanning the crossroad events of modern times, and of the legacy of
hatred their children inherit.
