Krátky popis
LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2017 'Elegant and evocative ...
A powerful exploration of the clash between society, family and
faith in the modern world' Guardian 'There is high, high music in
the air at the end of Home Fire' New York Times Isma is free. After
years spent raising her twin siblings in the wake of their mother's
death, she is finally studying in America, resuming a dream long
deferred. But she can't stop worrying about Aneeka, her beautiful,
headstrong sister back in London - or their brother, Parvaiz, who's
disappeared in pursuit of his own dream: to prove himself to the
dark legacy of the jihadist father he never knew. Then Eamonn
enters the sisters' lives. Handsome and privileged, he inhabits a
London worlds away from theirs. As the son of a powerful British
Muslim politician, Eamonn has his own birthright to live up to - or
defy. Is he to be a chance at love? The means of Parvaiz's
salvation? Two families' fates are inextricably, devastatingly
entwined in this searing novel that asks: what sacrifices will we
make in the name of love? A contemporary reimagining of Sophocles'
Antigone, Home Fire is an urgent, fiercely compelling story of
loyalties torn apart when love and politics collide - confirming
Kamila Shamsie as a master storyteller of our times.
