On weekends, his wife Afra, a gifted artist, sells her paintings at the open-air market in the square. They live simply, rich in family and friends, in the hills of the beautiful Syrian city of Aleppo -- until the unthinkable happens. When all they love is destroyed by war, Nuri knows they have no choice except to leave their home. But escaping Syria will be no easy task: Afra has lost her sight, leaving Nuri to navigate her grief as well as a perilous journey toward in uncertain future in Britain. Moving, intimate, and beautifully written, this is a story for our times: It reminds us that our lives can be upended instanty -- and brings a journey in faraway lands close to home, never to be forgotten." -- Back cover. 648 7 $a 2011 $2 fast 650 0 $a Beekeepers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Refugees $z Syria $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Beekeepers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00829730 650 7 $a Refugees. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01092797 651 0 $a Syria $x History $y Civil War, 2011- $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Syria. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208757 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 10 952 $l AIPC937 $d 20231222010807.0 952 $l EWPB745 $d 20230228010512.0 952 $l S3PA501 $d 20221129150255.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20221122011219.0 952 $l XIPA157 $d 20220927013143.0 952 $l CGPC482 $d 20220526010711.0 952 $l EKPC715 $d 20220126010043.0 952 $l ZOPC437 $d 20211207134923.0 952 $l YYPC162 $d 20210306020144.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20201006012113.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=52A95ADA079911EB91AE0FFD35ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
