About this book
The moving true story of a Siberian pioneer family's year-long quest to grant their late son Sasha's final request may be found in "The Lemon Tree" by Ilil Arbel. Sasha wants his family to plant a lemon tree in an Israeli orchard after he grew one from seed in his tea.
The family perseveres in the face of many obstacles, such as riding cattle trains over the Trans-Siberian line, becoming stuck in Shanghai, and dealing with hazards like typhoid sickness and Manchurian officials. This book serves as a tribute to their tenacity and the little tropical tree's perseverance in the face of severe hardship.
