Its April 1948, and war hangs over Jaffa.

One minute seven-year-old Salim is dreaming of taking his first harvest from the familys orange tree; 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, Ishmaels Oranges follows the story of two families spanning the crossroad events of modern times, and of the legacy of hatred their children inherit.
