{"product_id":"homeland-elegies-a-novel","title":"Homeland Elegies: A Novel","description":"This \"profound and provocative\" work by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Disgraced and American Dervish followsan immigrant father and his son as they search for belonging—in post-Trump America, and with each other (Kirkus Reviews).\n\"Passionate, disturbing, unputdownable.\" —Salman Rushdie\n\nA deeply personal work about identity and belonging in a nation coming apart at the seams, Homeland Elegies blends fact and fiction to tell an epic story of longing and dispossession in the world that 9\/11 made. Part family drama, part social essay, part picaresque novel, at its heart it is the story of a father, a son, and the country they both call home.\n\nAyad Akhtar forges a new narrative voice to capture a country in which debt has ruined countless lives and the gods of finance rule, where immigrants live in fear, and where the nation's unhealed wounds wreak havoc around the world. Akhtar attempts to make sense of it all through the lens of a story about one family, from a heartland town in America to palatial suites in Central Europe to guerrilla lookouts in the mountains of Afghanistan, and spares no one—least of all himself—in the process.\nOne of the New York Times 10 Best Books of the Year\nOne of Barack Obama's Favorite Books of 2020\nFinalist for the 2021 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction\nA Best Book of 2020 * Washington Post * O Magazine * New York Times Book Review * Publishers Weekly\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0316496413\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.0316496413.LN\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Like New\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Akhtar, Ayad\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in like new condition.
