    The Stone and the Viola

    A first-person profile of Ramzi Hussein Aburedwan, who, as an eight-year-old boy in a West Bank refugee camp, threw stones at Israeli soldiers during the intifada. Ten years later, he picked up a bow and a viola and set out on a path toward a life of music.

    This story was the seed for Sandy Tolan’s 2015 book Children of the Stone.
