Book Overview

The unforgettable, heartbreaking story of a doomed love and a young man's education in hope.

In the crowded streets of a Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon, Waseem has learned to navigate life with quiet resilience. Born with a disability that leaves him largely unable to speak or walk, Waseem's world is shaped by the small, intimate details of camp life.

For years, Waseem has shared a deep, unspoken bond with Ameena, his best friend and the girl he has silently loved from afar. Ameena, a fierce and compassionate spirit, has always been there for Waseem, supporting him through every challenge. The friendship is both fueled and challenged by their secret ambition--to travel to Palestine, their beloved but unreachable ancestral home.

Waseem is in turn a tear-wrenching and hilarious journey of friendship, love, and exile. It explores the intersections of physical and emotional healing, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Waseem's story is one of determination and transformation--a testament to the power of love and the unbreakable connection to one's roots, no matter how distant they may seem.
