Lyrical and dreamlike. 'The Last Pomegranate Tree' is a beautiful novel about life and death and the middle ground occupied by our memories. Magical realism does not always work for me, but this type of story telling works well for a novel centered around dreams. The prose is a delight as well, so much credit is due to Ali as well as the translator, Kareem Abdulrahman. I hope this new publication from Archipelago will gain Ali a much deserved wider audience. Solid four stars.
