Description

A Sky So Close: A Novel by Betool Khedairi This elegant and incisive debut novel tells the story of a young girl's struggle to find her place in two cultures. Born to an Iraqi father and English mother, she navigates the complexities of traditional Iraqi life and Western education, searching for a sense of belonging. As war breaks out and her family is forced to move, the girl faces new challenges that test her heart and soul. With gentle yet unflinching prose, Khedairi explores the clash between East and West, and the difficult journey towards self-acceptance. A poignant and thought-provoking novel, A Sky So Close offers a fresh perspective on identity, culture, and belonging.
