Lucy Ferriss recommends
thumb
Everything Here Is Beautiful (2018)
Mira T Lee
"Mira Lee has crafted an eloquent, vivid story not just of mental illness, but of passionate longing and family love in which there are no perfect choices but always a pulsing light of hope."
thumb
The Hidden Light of Objects (2014)
Mai Al-Nakib
"The Hidden Light of Objects brings forth both the light and the shadows of the contemporary Middle East in clean-edged prose that startles us, not with sudden violence or polemic, but with the ineluctable force of human desire. Kuwait itself becomes a character, full of contradictions, in this multifaceted set of stories and vignettes. Superb."
