The Blue Between Sky and Water

I like it when a book can take me away to a different place.  In writing The Blue Between Sky and Water, Susan Abulhawa took me to Palestine.  Simply writing about births and deaths, conversations and children, jobs and food, the refugee camps in Gaza story is told in a gripping fashion.  The main characters are the women who hold the family together.  One male character is Khaled and his story is gripping.  I can't say that now I totally understand the whole Middle Eastern conflict but I do have a better grip on the situation after reading this book.
