Nadia Hashimi, author of last year's The Pearl That Broke Its Shell, returns with another novel about the strength and resilience of Afghan women in When the Moon Is Low.
In her second novel, Nadia tells the story of Fereiba, who packs up her family and flees Kabul after her husband is murdered by the Taliban. The family’s journey through the underworld of Europe’s refugee community to London—where Fereiba’s sister can offer them safe harbor—is by turns astonishing, frightening, and triumphant.
When the Moon Is Low recently received a starred review from Library Journal, which calls it "perfect for book clubs." Make sure you pick up the July issue to read the full review.
