The greatest strength of...Aysegül Savas is that she writes so well about homesickness ... Leaves us squirming in discomfort and sympathy ... Well rendered ... The story’s skill...lies in its subtlety.
The characters may be vulnerable, but they are never overwrought, a balancing act Savaş executes flawlessly. As she makes clear, navigating adulthood with an added sense of rootlessness is not easy, especially in today’s world.
