Description
The Map of Salt and Stars
In the summer of 2011, Nour's life is turned upside down when her father passes away. Her mother decides to move their family from New York City back to Syria, seeking comfort in their ancestral home. To cope with her grief, Nour finds solace in a centuries-old tale about Rawiya, a young girl who disguised herself as a boy to pursue her passion for mapmaking.
As the war reaches their quiet neighborhood, Nour and her family are forced to make a choice: stay and risk more violence or flee across seven countries in search of safety. Their journey follows the very route Rawiya took eight hundred years ago, charting the world along the way.
