«Palestina, simfonia de la terra» is the young adult novel by Anna Tortajada, published by Barcanova in paperback (192 pages, in Catalan).
Arik, a young Israeli musician, and Djamil·la, a Palestinian refugee girl, suffer equally from the consequences of the conflict in the Middle East. While she dreams of studying singing and her family tries to hold on to hope, he finds in the cello the strength to sustain his convictions against fanaticism. The music of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, founded by Daniel Barenboim and Edward Said, becomes a symbol of encounter and the commitment to peaceful coexistence.
Work in Catalan from the Antaviana Nova collection. Aimed at readers aged 14 and up.
For young people and adults who want to approach the complexity of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict through a story with a musical backdrop and a message of reconciliation.
