Meer over het boek

Set against a backdrop of increasing division in America, the narrative follows Afaf Rahman, a Palestinian immigrant's daughter and principal of a Muslim girls' school in Chicago. The story unfolds dramatically when a shooter, influenced by the alt-right, attacks the school, challenging Afaf to confront her identity, faith, and the complexities of belonging in a fractured society. Through evocative prose, the novel explores themes of resilience, community, and the impact of radicalization.
