Section 3 - 221 - 325


I chose this book because it was highly recommended and sounded interesting. The book is about a Syrian-American family caught between the effects of Hurricane Katrina and America's war on terror. It surrounds their struggles as well as the father of the family, Abdulrahman Zeitoun. The book is highly reviewed by many organizations and newspapers. This book gives a unique take on a tragedy that occurred when I was just beginning to become aware of current events.
