Su questo libro

Recensione:

“...A family story, and the many threads eventually cleave to illustrate how a complicated blend of race, religion, culture, and tradition can create peace rather than conflict.” (Publishers Weekly)

“The type of storytelling that opens the reader’s eyes to other lives.” (The Columbus Dispatch)

“[Haji’s] new novel will appeal to readers interested in the clash of cultures. Promising for discussion, as the reading group guide suggests.” (Library Journal)
