Hala Alyan recommends
Paradiso 17 (2026)
Hannah Lillith Assadi
"Paradiso 17 is a searing portrait of exile, of a man reeling from home to home after the loss of Palestine. This poet's novel is a true beauty, a tale of grief and also ultimate, otherworldly triumph and return."
When We Were Sisters (2022)
Fatimah Asghar
"In this captivating, gorgeously written book, Asghar weaves a tale of sisters in the wake of unspeakable loss. Propulsively readable and experimental in form, this is an unflinching look at family, grief, and reclamation--of self and other."
No Land to Light On (2022)
Yara Zgheib
"A masterful story of tragedy and redemption, an entire history told through the prism of a single Syrian couple, beginning and ending with love."
