Description
The Sandcastle Girls by Chris Bohjalian is a sweeping historical love story set against the backdrop of the Armenian Genocide during WWI. In 1915, Elizabeth Endicott arrives in Aleppo, Syria, with a diploma from Mount Holyoke and a determination to help deliver food and medical aid to refugees.
There, she meets Armen, a young Armenian engineer who has already lost his wife and infant daughter. Years later, their American granddaughter, Laura, embarks on a journey back through her family's history, uncovering a story of love, loss, and a wrenching secret that has been buried for generations.
This powerful novel explores the complexities of love, family, and secrets in the face of unimaginable tragedy. With its rich historical context and emotional depth, The Sandcastle Girls is a compelling read for anyone interested in stories of resilience and survival.
