Description

Sorayya Khan's powerful and poignant novel tells the story of memory, family, tragedy, and forgiveness. Set against the backdrop of modern-day Pakistan, the book follows an extraordinary child who enables her mother and grandfather to confront their suppressed pasts. Through the child's artwork, her family members are transported back in time to relive memories of the 1970 cyclone and the violent conflicts that followed. As they face their haunted pasts, they must also come to terms with the betrayals and disillusionments that have been buried for years. This moving and unsettling novel explores the horrors of war, the power of forgiveness, and the strength of the human spirit, making it a powerful and thought-provoking read.
