Patmeena Sabit: Good People, Gebunden

Klappentext

A provocative novel about an immigrant family that achieves the American dream.

After fleeing the horrors of war in Afghanistan, the Sharaf family resettles as refugees in Northern Virginia. After many years of hard work, the father has become a millionaire. Now they live in the most exclusive neighborhood, their growing family attending the most prestigious schools. And Zorah, the eldest daughter, is the apple of her father's eye.

When an unthinkable tragedy strikes, the family is left reeling. But there is talk that the Sharaf happy family was anything but and soon the veneer of the model immigrant family starts to crumble.

Told through multiple points of view and set against a backdrop of Islamophobia and xenophobia, the novel is riveting, provocative, and unforgettable. Good People is sure to spark ongoing conversation with its urgent storytelling, daring structure, and nuanced look at some of the most pressing questions of our time.
