Les Contes de l’olivier : contes juifs et arabes réunis, Catherine Gendrin and Judith Gueyfier

Jewish and Arab tales of brotherhood and peace.  This book of stories brings together two cultures that are usually hostile to one another, with stories from both communities. By turns serious and mischievous, they take the reader into the heart of these two very rich cultures, through legendary characters like Elijah or Goha, the wise fool, without glossing over the prejudices that have been rife for a very long time. But happily, sometimes through storytelling, antagonisms are dispelled in a burst of laughter.
