🌟 Homeland Elegies by Ayad Akhtar


This is a brilliant book by a brilliant mind.  I finished it and wanted to start all over at the beginning because it's full of so many ideas that challenge the intellect.  Kirkus says,  "A profound and provocative inquiry into an artist’s complex American identity."

Listening to so many people discuss this "novel", they question whether it really can be considered a novel because so much of the author's story is in this book.  I loved his novel, American Dervish and this was very different in many respects but had some of the same theme: being Muslim in America.

I really can't say enough about this.....
