I'm always interested in reading about someone's life in another country and this sounds fascinating!!
Ali Eteraz's Children of Dust is a spellbinding portrayal of a life that few Americans can imagine. From his schooling in a madrassa in Pakistan to his teenage years as a Muslim American in the Bible Belt, and back to Pakistan to find a pious Muslim wife, this lyrical, penetrating saga from a brilliant new literary voice captures the heart of our universal quest for identity.

Children of the Dust sounds really good - I love books about other cultures.
ReplyDeleteI recieved Children of the Dust a few weeks back, but have not been in the mood to read it yet.
ReplyDeleteI read a really fun review of the vampire book last week. I'll be watching for yours. Barrie emailed and said you'd be participating in her Book Review Club. It'll be nice to have a friend in the club :)

Here's my Mailbox
Hey Staci, I was just thinking about getting books in the mail. I used to order more from Amazon and when a parcel arrived today for my nephew (who dwells with us) I was a wee homesick for a parcel of my own!
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading.
I have Children of the Dust, but lately I've been in a "fluffy" mood and none of my TBR stack is real fluffy.

ReplyDeleteI got Children of Dust too, for basically the same reasons. I figured I would learn something along the way, and I've always been curious abot that culture.
ReplyDeleteI actually received How To Catch and Keep A Vampire in the mail yesterday. I can't wait to start it.
