Set amid the Syrian revolution, Zoulfa Katouh's breathtaking, groundbreaking debut is the international bestseller that everyone is talking about. Shortlisted for the British Book Awards
Zoulfa Katouh is a Syrian Canadian based in Switzerland. She is
currently pursuing her master’s in Drug Sciences and finds Studio
Ghibli inspiration in the mountains, lakes and stars surrounding
her. When she’s not talking to herself in the woodland forest,
she’s drinking iced coffee, baking aesthetic cookies and cakes, and
telling everyone who will listen about how BTS paved the way. A
dream of hers is to get Kim Nam-joon to read one of her books. As
Long As the Lemon Trees Grow is her debut novel.
