Salt Houses
By Hala Alyan
A book about Palestine, those who had to leave, and where successive generations ended up and lived. About trying to go back to Palestine, when Palestine is only a story told by the grandparents who had to leave. The story of immigrants, of finding new homes, of never quite belonging anywhere, always identified by an accent, by skin colour.
Rating: 4/5
Recommendation: A bit slow at times, but a good read.
