The Secret Sky
Atia Abawi
Fiction Ab18s
Fatima is a Hazara girl, raised to be obedient and dutiful. Samiullah is
a Pashtun boy raised to defend the traditions of his tribe. They were
not meant to fall in love. But they do. And the story that follows shows
both the beauty and the violence in current-day Afghanistan as Fatima
and Samiullah fight their families, their cultures and the Taliban to
stay together. Based on the people Atia Abawi met and the events she
covered during her nearly five years in Afghanistan, this stunning novel
is a must-read for anyone who has lived during America's War in
Afghanistan.
Perfect for fans of Patricia McCormick, Linda Sue
Park, and Khaled Hosseini, this story will stay with readers for a long
time to come.
