“I found A House at the Edge of Tears stunning and provocative, compelling and haunting. Vénus Khoury-Ghata has weaved like a lace maker the story of her brother, herself, her family, and a society far removed from any bland ideal...using the finest, poetic, hypnotic prose which pricks you like needles.”—Hanan al-Shaykh

product image “[Per Petterson] provides one of literature’s greatest gifts in his novels—an absorbing interiority that creates a welcome refuge from our cacophonous world. His books are suffused with a luxurious, downy silence, a quiet that allows us to slow down and sink into spare language that evokes complex emotions and primal sensations such as cold, wet, darkness and light with surprising force.”

product image “What starts out as a novel about sex, drugs, and rock’n’roll ends up as a warning of how the most unlikely person can convert to religious fanaticism.
