Publisher's Synopsis
Life is full of dichotomies: black and white, right and wrong, Pakistan and USA. Sitara starts to see the glaring differences in people, once she has a child of her own grow-up: Sitara and Sehar, Fatima versus Nisa, her amazing husband Qamar versus the awful son-in-law Nadeem. Sehar is now in an arranged marriage, but things are going very wrong. Will Sitara ever know the full truth of what Sehar endures? Will Sehar escape the nightmare of her in-laws? "This book beautifully takes you through the basic secrets behind a successful marriage, even though a successful marriage takes a lot of work. We see the inner workings of an arranged marriage in Pakistan, and see how that translates in the United States. This is a story of not only arranged marriages, but of immigration, of loss, of family." -Editor, Amy Gossett
