Green Almonds: Letters from Palestine by Anaële Hermans
3.0
'Green Almonds' by Anaele Hermans with art by Delphine Hermans is a graphic novel about a correspondence between two sisters.
Two sisters, Anaele and Delphine, in Belgium start writing each other when Anaele leaves for Palestine. Anaele is going to volunteer in an aid program and learns firsthand the delicate situation between Israelis and Palestinians. Through holidays and travel Anaele writes her sister about how she is feeling. Delphine, in turn, writes short postcards and her anxiety for her sister is pretty evident.
I liked this story about an outsider who sees firsthand a situation that is going on. The art is interesting as is the story.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Oni Press, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
