As an adult, she witnessed further horrors when she returned to Palestine with Jewish and Palestinian colleagues, and a U.S. senator, on an economic mission. She has since been banned from returning.Her goal is not to cast aspersions against the Israeli people, but to support her fellow Palestinians, who have endured much hardship under Israeli rule, and to realize her dreams of seeing a lasting, just peace between Palestinians and Israelis. …

The overbearing mother he still lives with sees to that, with help from a Catholic priest who has been telling Vito what to do for as long as he can remember.Then a strange, jewel-encrusted flask comes into Vito's possession, offering him hope of being lifted from his dreadful existence.

And so might his new love, Lucia.Along the way, Vito learns important lessons about what others in his life have endured, why his mother has fought so hard to protect him, the value of forgiveness, and just how much better the world is when gray turns into the colors of the rainbow.…
