Passionate disturbing unputdownable. - Salman RushdieA deeply personal work about hope and identity in a nation coming apart at the seams Homeland Elegiesblends fact and fiction to tell an epic story of belonging and dispossession in the world that 9/11 made. Part family drama part social essay part picaresque adventure -- at its heart it is the story of a father a son and the country they both call home.Akhtar forges a new narrative voice to capture a country in which debt has ruined countless lives and our ideals have been sacrificed to the gods of finance where a TV personality is president and immigrants live in fear and where the nation's unhealed wounds of 9/11 wreak havoc around the world. Akhtar attempts to make sense of it all through the lens of a story about one family from a heartland town in America to palatial suites in Central Europe to guerilla lookouts in the mountains of Afghanistan and spares no one -- least of all himself -- in the process.(less)
