What once felt stable is cracking. Old stories no longer hold. Across cultures and continents, many feel it. A quiet unease. A growing urgency. A sense that we are standing in a passage between worlds.
This is not just a crisis. It is a threshold.
When the Almond Trees Bloom by Afghan-Norwegian Samina Vabo Ansari is a book for those living in the tremor of uncertainty. In times of loss, displacement, collapse, or quiet grief, it is an invitation to alchemise crisis into clarity and fracture into a fertile beginning.
The almond tree is the first to flower after winter. Often it blooms while the cold still lingers. It does not wait for perfect conditions. It declares what is possible before the world has caught up.
This book carries that same gesture. It is a call to bloom. Not despite what has been lost, but because of what has been survived.
Written for a global generation of people who are exiled, uprooted, restless, and visionary, this is not a book that offers escape. It offers remembrance.
A remembrance of who we are. Ancestral, imaginative, and profoundly regenerative.
“When the Almond Trees Bloom speaks to a courage that deserves to be seen. Afghans are some of the most courageous people I know.”
— General Eirik Kristoffersen, at the launch of "When the Almond Trees Bloom", Oslo, December 21, 2025
