Haitham Hussein Hostages of Memory

Produktbeskrivelse

In the Syrian-Turkish borderlands, Khatoune searches for a home for their family. As her sons Alo and Ahme attempt to build a life for themselves, they know little about the secrets that weigh down their family history, or the troubles that the future has in store for them. So unfolds a tale of tragedy, humour, and – occasionally – joy; a tale spanning three generations that offers us an earthy glimpse into the lives of the people who have made this land their home, both along and in spite of the borders that divide them. The novel shows the strength of the Kurdish women and their steadfastness in the face of the hardships. It also addresses the fragmentation of the Kurdish identity and how international alliances affected the Kurds in their contemporary history.
