An Emotion Of Great Delight
Описание и характеристики
Its 2003. Its been several months since the US officially declared war on Iraq, and the political world has evolved. Shadi, who wears hijab (a visible allegiance to Islam) keeps her head down. Hate crimes are spiking. Undercover FBI agents are infiltrating mosques and interrogating members of the congregation, and the local Muslim community is beginning to fracture. Shadi hears the fights after services, the arguments between families about what it means to be Muslim, about what they should be doing and saying as a community but she does not engage.
Shes too busy drowning in her own troubles to find the time to deal with bigots.
Shadi is named for joy, but shes haunted by sorrow. Her brother is dead, her father is dying, her mother is falling apart, and her best friend has mysteriously dropped out of her life. And then, of course, theres the small matter of her heart
Its broken. Shadi has tried to navigate the remains of her quickly-shattering world by soldiering through, saying nothing, until finally, one day, everything changes.
She explodes.
Perfect for fans of the Shatter Me series as well as Angie Thomass The Hate U Give and Nicola Yoons The Sun is Also A Star.
