I Don't Want to Talk About Home

Více o knize

Growing up amongst the strictures of conservative Saudi Arabia, Suad Aldarra yearned for the vibrant Syrian streets of her family's origin. When the opportunity arose to study there, she jumped at the chance to move to a city she loved and to experience a degree of freedom she'd never known. But when the war started, everything changed. Suddenly Suad was thrown into a world of relentless pressure, desperately looking for a way out. A job offer in Ireland was her saving grace, but reaching safely would be harder than she ever imagined … I Don't Want to Talk About Home is not a memoir about war and destruction. It's not about camps or boats. It's about the enduring love for a home that ceased to exist, and how to build life out of the rubble.
