Book Synopsis



Entre las luces y sombras de una guerra una mujer palestina lo sacrificará todo

Acusada de pertenecer a una célula terrorista, Nahr purga una condena en aislamiento solitario mientras recuerda los dramáticos eventos que la llevaron hasta ese momento extremo. Nacida en Kuwait en los años setenta e hija de refugiados palestinos, Nahr soñaba con enamorarse del hombre perfecto, tener hijos y abrir su propio salón de belleza. Sin embargo, el hombre que creía amar la abandonó después de un breve matrimonio, su familia quedó sumida en la pobreza y ella se vio arrastrada hasta Irak, donde fue forzada a prostituirse y, tras la invasión estadounidense, terminó por convertirse en una refugiada como lo fueron sus padres. Cuando por fin consigue escapar a Palestina tras una breve estancia en Jordania, se enamora y forma un hogar, aunque su destino vuelve a dar un giro, arrebatándole, tal vez, la última oportunidad de ser feliz.
Una novela asombrosa y poética que nos presenta la mirada subversiva, salpicada de humor y ambigüedad moral, de una joven que, en su búsqueda de encontrar una vida mejor, se radicaliza poco a poco. Una lectura imperdible y emocionante sobre las muchas caras del mundo árabe, donde guerras y conflictos religiosos no dejan de generar estragos.
