About this listen

A USA TODAY BESTSELLER
Jewish Women's Archive 2025

With a message of hope that is both timely and timeless, Upside-Down Love is an extraordinary memoir—irreverent, funny, and profoundly uplifting—of an Israeli lawyer, a Palestinian professor, and a love that transcends all division.

Osama is a Palestinian professor, originally from Gaza, who cannot leave the West Bank city of Ramallah. Sari is an Israeli-American lawyer and long-distance runner who petitions Israel’s Supreme Court for his right to travel freely. When the case began, neither expected to fall in love—and when it was over, nobody expected their love to endure.

First published in Hebrew in 2021, Osama and Sari’s star-crossed romance—an intimate, vulnerable portrait of an astoundingly resilient Israeli-Palestinian relationship—has since become a beacon of hope in the aftermath of October 7, 2023. Now on its way to becoming an international cult sensation, Upside-Down Love speaks to the unique circumstances of this specific moment in history, while also illustrating a timeless truth: Love will triumph over bigotry and destruction.
