Brief The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri

But escaping Syria will be no easy task: Afra has lost her sight, leaving Nuri to navigate her grief as well as a perilous journey through Turkey and Greece toward an uncertain future in Britain. Nuri is sustained only by the knowledge that waiting for them is his cousin Mustafa, who has started an apiary in Yorkshire and is teaching fellow refugees beekeeping. As Nuri and Afra travel through a broken world, they must confront not only the pain of their own unspeakable loss but dangers that would overwhelm even the bravest souls. Above all, they must make the difficult journey back to each other, a path once so familiar yet rendered foreign by the heartache of displacement. Moving, intimate, and beautifully written, The Beekeeper of Aleppo is a book for our times: a novel that at once reminds us that the most peaceful and ordinary lives can be utterly upended in unimaginable ways and brings a journey in faraway lands close to home, never to be forgotten. With Vladimir Putin’s troops raging across eastern Ukraine, we are losing sight of another armed conflict in the past decade that was even more destructive. Beginning in 2011 in the Arab Spring, protests in Syria against the brutal and corrupt regime of Bashar al-Asaad soon morphed into violence across the country. In the Syrian Civil War, more than half a million died and 6.8 million fled to other countries, about half the total number displaced from their homes by the fighting. And the carnage is continuing as I write. British novelist Christy Lefteri commemorates the suffering—and hope—of Syrian refugees in her deeply moving novel, The Beekeeper of Aleppo.
