๐˜๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ง ๐˜›๐˜ณ๐˜ถ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ is a powerful, deeply personal story inspired by Nadiaโ€™s own lived experiences and the life of her Moroccan grandmother. This multigenerational tale spans decades and continents, following Zarah as she journeys to Morocco with her baby boy in search of the father she never knew โ€” only to uncover the family she never knew she had.

Weโ€™d love to hear what you think of it in the Reading By Candlelight Book Club or on Instagram.
