In the once beautiful city of Aleppo, one Syrian family collapses
into tragedy and ruin. The mother, abandoned by her husband,
struggles to raise her children alone. Her daughter Sawsan flirts
with the militias, the ruling party, and finally religion, seeking
but never finding salvation. All are slowly choked in the fog of
violence and decay, as their lives are plundered and their dreams
wrecked by the brutal Assad regime. Set between the 1960s and
2000s, No Knives in the Kitchens of this City is a graceful and
profound depiction of life under tyranny. Through the story of a
single family, we read the disintegration of a whole society over
half a century. This novel teaches us about grief, fear, and the
end of beauty.
