You Drown in Your Own Water

To reunite with his wife while she pursues her career and they settle the paperwork, Emir finally moves to Fayetteville, Arkansas. He has to start from the beginning again and intends for the painful opportunity to be a new chapter.

His complicated home life, his novel friendships with the Muslim internationals, his disengagement from his research and his mother's health had been the center of his waking thoughts, that is until he meets Lacie Suchan and Maghniya Taia. His relentless pursuit to be part of the tranquil yet captivating duo brings him more than what he bargains for and precipitates painful memories, overwhelming confrontations and eventually, irreversible events.

DISCLAIMER: The potential reader is advised there are references to triggering topics in this book. Manipulative relationships, self-harm, trauma, racism, mental health, unaddressed trauma and suicide are excruciating and real parts of the lives of multiple households. They are rancid stigmas within societies that pretend to civilized, humane and egalitarian values.

While this book is not meant to provide education or an objective approach to these issues and how to tackle them, the Werths hope acknowledging the events and their vicious impact will bridge a way to empathize with survivors and hopefully catalyze an interest in getting properly educated, active and involved.
