Synopsis

A Lullaby in the Desert tells the story of one woman’s unrelenting journey to find freedom. Born in Iran, Susan is forced to flee in order to escape an arranged marriage, leaving her mother and everything she has known behind. Years later, Susan has settled in Erbil where she must continue to navigate the daily threat of racial prejudice and a violent patriarchal society. Yet even as she struggles to survive, life is further disturbed by the approach of ISIS in 2014. Like many others, Susan is forced to make a life changing decision. Stay in Erbil and let ISIS decide her fate? Or risk everything in search of a freedom she had never known? The subjection and danger that Susan must overcome during her gruelling journey shows an instinct for survival and human resilience that is truly eye opening. A Lullaby in the Desert may share one woman’s fight for survival, but it shows the reality that many have, and still, face.

À propos de l'auteur

In 2014, Mojgan Azar was trapped in Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, when the Islamic State of Iraq and ash-Sham swept through the Middle East. A Lullaby in the Desert draws on Azar's own trauma and experiences, as she writes her first novel on behalf of all the women that still cannot risk telling their stories.
