In these pages, women, men, and children who've crossed continents in search of a better life find themselves struggling with the chaos of displacement and the religious and cultural clashes they face in their new homes. A maid who travelled to the Middle East lured by the prospect of a well-paying job is trapped in the Syrian war. A female ex-freedom fighter immigrates to Canada only to be relegated to cleaning public washrooms and hospital sheets. A disillusioned civil servant struggles to come to grips with his lover's imminent departure. A young Muslim Canadian woman who'd married her way to California to escape her devout family's demands realizes she's made a mistake. The collection is about remorse and the power of memory, about the hardships of a post-9/11 reality that labels many as suspicious or dangerous because of their names or skin color alone, but it's also about hope and friendship and the intricacies of human relationships. Most importantly, it's about the compromises we make to belong. [url] => https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12332466 [pa] => [publisher] => House of Anansi Press Inc [purchaseModel] => INSTANT )
