Angebote / Angebote:

Muddy People is like the best kind of cake: warm, sweet, a bit nutty-and made with so much love."-Alice Pung, author of Unpolished Gem A quick, clever, and warm-hearted debut about growing up in an Egyptian-Muslim family.Sarah, who goes by her family nickname, Soos, is growing up in an eccentric household with a lot of rules. No bikinis, despite the heat in Queensland, Australia, where her family immigrated. No boys, unless he's Muslim. And no life insurance, not even when her father gets cancer.Soos is trying to discover how to balance her parents' strict decrees with having friendships, crushes, and the freedom to develop her own values. With each rule Soos comes up against, she is forced to choose between doing what her parents say is right, and following her instincts. When her family collapses after her father's cancer diagnosis, she comes to see her parents as flawed, their morals based on a muddy logic. But she will also learn that they are her strongest defenders.For readers of Patricia Lockwood's Priestdaddy and Lindsay Wong's The Woo Woo, this hilarious, heartwarming book about family and identity introduces a talented new voice.
