Praise

The narrating style reminds me of the legendary writer KHALED HOSSEINI, very simple way to narrate a story which will definitely force the readers to complete the book in one go.

Timid Fingers

“…Spellbinding… Brilliant… Mind-blowing… Remarkable…”

Ujval’s Lounge

“…an epic drama of the proportions of The Kite Runner”

Huffington Post

My hope is that one day heads of state from around the globe will actually say to Michelle Cohen Corasanti, “You are the woman who, when you made us look through the eyes of Ichmad Hamid, Menachem Sharon and Abbas Hamid, of Nora,Justice and Zoher, of Baba and Yasmine, of Amal and Sara, effectively argued for peace.

Marsha Hansen (Sister in law of Keith Richards,Rolling Stones) speaks about The Almond Tree

This stunning debut conveys a universal story of human courage and resolution. Comparable to Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner, this novel delivers an inspirational story of unfathomable pain and incredible perseverance.

Her book assists us in challenging the lie that the expedients of inhumane policies and treatment are justified to secure a just and lasting peace in the Middle East and the restoration of human rights to the ordinary Palestinians who simply want to live with dignity and freedom.

Marsha Hansen (Sister in law of Keith Richards,Rolling Stones) speaks about The Almond Tree

“… profound and finely crafted… This intimate tale of love and loss and awareness shines a greater understanding of the personal toll of the ongoing Israeli–Palestinian conflict.”

Marcy Dermansky author, Bad Marie

“…definitely a five-star…the story is powerful and engrossing, definitely recommended.”

The Dubious Disciple (One of the top 10 Christian blogs in US)

“An epic novel, a drama of the proportions of The Kite Runner…”

Huffington Post

“…brilliant and powerful…a fiction that rings with authenticity and integrity to reveal the wonder of what it really is to be human. If ever peace is to become a reality between Israel and Palestine, it will be because of the influence of books such as this…This…book…will endure and resonate forever in the souls of all who read it…Some books have the power to change us profoundly; this is one of those books.”

Les Edgerton, author of The Death of Tarpons and Monday´s Meal

“(The Almond Tree) had traces of Victor Frankl’s Man’s search for Meaning. Both of them talk about the surviving through the worst possible human conditions and coming out of it with flying colors, keeping a hope alive for humanity in the middle of hatred, violence and all kinds of divisions that we let come between us and our fellow beings. This also opened up the geography and politics of Israel and Palestine for me, of which I had a very vague idea based on newspaper reports. At the end o… Read more

Book Reviews by Anuradha Goya

“The Almond Tree is an inspirational narrative of profound pain, courage, hope, resilience and indomitable human spirit…But what makes Corasanti’s book stand apart is her very humanistic, sensitive and equitable handling of the events of the story.”

Reflections

“…her powerful prose and compelling characters raises The Almond Tree to the status of epic”

John Zogby founder, Zogby International and author, The Way We’ll Be: The Zogby Report on the Transformation, The American Dream

“…Spellbinding… Brilliant.. Mind-blowing… Remarkable…” “It has been a very long time since a book pulled me in as far as The Almond …did, and an even longer time since a book has made me cry.”

E-Book Review

‘The Almond Tree’ has one of the most powerful opening chapters that I have ever come across in a book, and instantly draws you towards its vortex. Sentiments and emotions play their parts well, and the author does a great job in painting the images right before our eyes. The scenes seem real with the words drawing the colors in the horizon. A book that is adorned with smiles and tears, living with hope, and with failure, ‘The Almond Tree’ makes you see life in an all new perspective, and… Read more

Live Your Life

Gifted with a mind that continues to impress the elders in his village, Ahmed Hamid struggles with knowing that he can do nothing to save his friends and family. Living on occupied land, his entire village operates in fear of losing their homes, jobs, and belongings. But more importantly, the people fear losing each other.

Timid Fingers

An awesome debut by any standards, this is a story that would resonate with the reader no matter where he is from.

Senthilkumar

“…reads like a treatise on love and peace…” “It ‘shines light’.”

The Earthen Lamp Journal, Professor Bina Biswa

“The story is spell-binding with universal appeal and has potential of becoming an international bestseller and can do for Palestinians what The Kite Runner did for Afghanistan.”

The Daily Star

“…one of the most riveting books I have read… Corasanti takes a realistic premise and builds an interesting and highly believable story that only gets better as the pages fly by. While “The Almond Tree” is a fictional tale, much of it is based on the truth of what is today’s world, and as such there is also an important message located within. I highly recommend this book.”
