'Captivating There's a breadth of humanity in An Unsafe Haven which is very moving. I loved the sense of Lebanon and of what is unique and precious about the Arab world' Helen Dunmore
Hannah has deep roots in her hometown of Beirut, where she lives with her American husband, Peter. Just when they thought they had gotten used to the upheavals in Lebanon, the war in neighbouring Syria enters its fifth year, and the region's increasingly fragile state throws their daily lives into chaos.
A chance meeting with a Syrian woman and her son in a busy street forces Hannah to face the worsening refugee crisis. As the couple work to reunite Fatima with her family, they must question the very future of their homeland.
And when their close friend Anas, an artist, arrives to open his exhibition, shocking news from his home in Damascus raises uncomfortable questions about his loyalty to his family and his country.
The award-winning author, Nada Awar Jarrar, once again proves her literary prowess with An Unsafe Haven, a top fiction book that delves into the political and life realities of the Arab world. Long-listed for several prizes, this book is a testament to the resilience of humanity amidst chaos.
For fans of Laila Lalami (The Other Americans), Abi Daré (The Girl with the Louding Voice), Candice Carty-Williams (People Person), Basma Abdel Aziz (The Queue), and Layla Alammar (The Pact We Made).
