Product Description
How far is love willing to travel in search of its own lost voice? When tyranny unleashes destructive forces that threaten to overwhelm a country, what are the effects on the lives and choices of ordinary humans? When citizens become inhabitants of a land of extremes, what do they do, to whom do they flee? Shadowing the days of Syria''s Arab spring, Fadi Azzam''s epic novel, Huddud''s House - a haunting, contemporary novel rooted in the soil of Damascus, the oldest inhabited city in humanity - is a sprawling tale of love in time of war. Focusing on a quartet of characters torn between leaving and returning to Damascus, it follows intertwining stories of love and violence to their boundaries. Azzam writes the spirit of resilience and resistance of the Syrian peoples. A saga on the dangers of ignoring threats or forgetting atrocities, he braves a long-distance search for his people''s voice, one that violence cannot silence.
