About this product

Product Information

"In this tale of a Somali family and the struggles of its powerful matriarch to keep it whole, Nuruddin Farah delves into the ways people - families, communities, countries - are bound together by what they are willing to give and what they choose to receive."--BOOK JACKET. "Duniya is raising her twins as a single mother and working long hours as a nurse at a Mogadiscio hospital, certain she can do just fine without anyone's help. But the fragile self-sufficiency of her world has been rocked by her daughter's latest act of rebellion: bringing home a mysterious foundling infant. And when Duniya impulsively accepts the favor of a ride to work from a charming, wealthy, and romantically-interested family friend, she opens up a part of herself that she closed off long ago. Instantly, her whole life is turned upside down."--BOOK JACKET. "Meanwhile, the hospital where Duniya works is under siege by a desperate population that has been ravaged by war, drought, disease, and famine. Somalia has been invaded by relief,organizations from America and Europe, but many Somalis chafe at being burdened with debts they can never hope to repay, and at having to accept tainted goods for which they're obliged to show gratitude. They, like Duniya, however, are being forced to reexamine old choices and to make new ones that reveal what they truly care about."--BOOK JACKET.

It's Good Friday and this book on the Eucharist arrived --- had to start reading it to learn about the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. This item was delivered early and was packaged well in a protective bubble mailer rather than a poly bag that other sellers use. Very pleased with the quality of the book as it was accurately described. Book content is excellent. Would buy from this seller again.

Red’s Corner, that’s the name of a bar I once patronized as a “yute.” Just finished the book and enjoyed it very much. The condition was as described, the price was more than fair and the shipping a tad slow. Blame the Post Office these days, they’re beginning to emulate the DMV. Would certainly buy from this seller again.
