Three generations of Palestinian-American women living in Brooklyn are torn between individual desire and the strict mores of Arab culture in this heart-wrenching story of love, intrigue and courage.Set in an America at once foreign to many and staggeringly close at hand, it is an intimate glimpse into a controlling and a universal tale about family and the ways silence and shame can destroy those we have sworn to protect. A New York Times bestseller.
