From the fertile hills of a tiny village near Jerusalem to the elegant townhouses of Georgetown, Three Daughters is a historical saga that chronicles the lives, loves, and secrets of three generations of Palestinian Christian women.
Born in rural Palestine, just before the dawn of the 20th century, Miriam adores her father and is certain his love will protect her, but she soon finds that tradition overrides love. Uprooted by war, Miriam enters a world where the old constraints slip away with thrilling and disastrous results. Miriam's rebellious daughter, Nadia, is thrilled with the opportunity for a modern life that her elite education provides. But when she falls in love with an outsider, the clan reins her back with a shocking finality. Nijmeh, Nadia's daughter, is an only child and the path her father, the sheik, sets for her is fraught with difficulties, yet it prepares her for her ultimate journey to America, where she finds her future.
Each woman, in her own time and in her own way, experiences a world in transition through war and social change... and each must stretch the bounds of her loyalty, her courage, and her heart.

Any additional comments?
Im not in anyway an expert in literature, but I think I have a fair eye for talent. This writer has it in spades. I felt each individual deeply. Total immersion in a story that is layered and deep. I felt like crying when the story ended, I had become so invested in the final 'daughter'. Ive also lived in Israel, and could easily picture the scenes described...which was a road to nostalgia in and of itself. The narration was spot on. The story was greatly enhanced by the narrators accents and voice. I have no idea how narrators and stories are matched together, but this match was made in Heaven. Be prepared for very real scenes and expressions of feelings of grief, sex, anger and intrigue. This is an honest and real tale.Blown away
