CHICAGO: Set between Oman and England, “Bitter Orange Tree,” by Man Booker International Prize winner Jokha Alharthi, is a mosaic of a story that centers on issues related to female relationships, human indifference and the passage of time.
“Bitter Orange Tree,” translated into English by Marilyn Booth, tells the story of Zuhour, a young Omani student attending a British university, who explores her past and present and learns about the many ways life can lead a person down paths they never thought possible.
