Powerful, emotional, and beautifully written, Alan Drewโs stunning first novel brings to life two unforgettable familiesโone Kurdish, one Americanโand the sacrifice and love that bind them together.
In a small town outside Istanbul, Sinan Basioglu, a devout Muslim, and his wife, Nilรผfer, are preparing for their nine-year-old sonโs coming-of-age ceremony. Their headstrong fifteen-year-old daughter, ฤฐrem, resents the attention her brother, Ismail, receives from their parents. For her, there was no such festive observanceโonly the wrapping of her head in a dark scarf and strict rules that keep her hidden away from boys and her friends. But even before the night of the celebration, ฤฐrem has started to change, to the dismay of her Kurdish father. What Sinan doesnโt know is that much of her transformation is due to her secret relationship with their neighbor, Dylan, the seventeen-year-old American son of expatriate teachers.
ฤฐrem sees Dylan as the gateway to a new life, one that will free her from the confines of conservative Islam. Yet the young manโs presence and Sinanโs growing awareness of their relationship affirms Sinanโs wish to move his family to the safety of his old village, a place where his children would be sheltered from the cosmopolitan temptations of Istanbul, and where, as the civil war in the south wanes, he hopes to raise his children in the Kurdish tradition.
But when a massive earthquake hits in the middle of the night, the Basioglu family is faced with greater challenges. Losing everything, they are forced to forage for themselves, living as refugees in their own country. And their survival becomes dependent on their American neighbors, to whom they are unnervingly indebted. As love develops between ฤฐrem and Dylan, Sinan makes a series of increasingly dangerous decisions that push him toward a betrayal that will change everyoneโs lives forever.
The deep bonds among father, son, and daughter; the tension between honoring tradition and embracing personal freedom; the conflict between cultures and faiths; the regrets of age and the passions of youthโthese are the timeless themes Alan Drew weaves into a brilliant fiction debut.
