'A sprawling tale of love, family, duty, war, and displacement'
Khaled Hosseini Correspondents by Tim Murphy is a powerful story
about the legacy of immigration, the present-day world of
refugeehood, the violence that America causes both abroad and at
home, and the power of the individual and the family to bring good
into a world that is often brutal. Spanning the breadth of the
twentieth century and into the post-9/11 wars and their legacy,
Correspondents is a powerful novel that centres on Rita Khoury, an
Irish-Lebanese woman whose life and family history mirrors the
story of modern America. Both sides of Rita's family came to the
United States in the golden years of immigration, and in her home
north of Boston Rita grows into a stubborn, perfectionist, and
relentlessly bright young woman. She studies Arabic at university
and moves to cosmopolitan Beirut to work as a journalist, and is
then posted to Iraq after the American invasion in 2003. In
Baghdad, Rita finds for the first time in her life that her safety
depends on someone else, her talented interpreter Nabil al-Jumaili,
an equally driven young man from a middle-class Baghdad family who
is hiding a secret about his sexuality. As Nabil's identity
threatens to put him in jeopardy and Rita's position becomes more
precarious as the war intensifies, their worlds start to unravel,
forcing them out of the country and into an uncertain future.
Coming out of the dark...
This is the story of a restaurant and hotel executive's climb to
the top while falling into the darkness of addiction, and what life
in the fast lane has to offer. After being raped as a young teen,
attempted suicide, dealing with sexual abuse from a priest, death
from a car wreck, the Drug Farm, countless broken relationships and
twenty five years of addiction, rehabs and jails, he comes to God
after a life of darkness and finds light in the hope of Jesus
Christ. At forty-six he turns his life around and becomes the man
that God had created him to be. The journey of miracles, hope and
faith is electric in the account of this new found life. From the
darkness and into the light is a journey with a powerful contrast.
This is my life story. It's a testimony to God for such a second
chance at life.
