Sheba Karim Libri

    Questa autrice esplora le complessità dell'identità attraverso narrazioni avvincenti che spesso mettono in luce le esperienze uniche dei musulmani americani. Le sue opere trascendono i confini, offrendo spunti sulle profondità delle relazioni interculturali e della crescita personale. Smonta intenzionalmente gli stereotipi, creando personaggi profondamente umani e autentici. Con un acuto senso del dettaglio e del linguaggio metaforico, come il riferimento alla poesia urdu, porta una prospettiva fresca e arricchente alla letteratura per giovani adulti.

      Three Pakistani-American teenagers, on a trip through the land of pork ribs, mechanical bulls, and Confederate flags. It's going to be quite an adventure. The summer after her freshman year of college, Mariam is looking forward to working and hanging out with her best friends: irrepressible and beautiful Ghazala and religious but closeted Umar. But when a scandalous photo of Ghaz appears on a billboard in Times Square, Mariam and Umar come up with a plan to rescue her from her furious parents. And what could be a better escape than a spontaneous road trip down to New Orleans? With the heartbreaking honesty of Julie Murphy's Dumplin' mixed with the cultural growing pains and smart snark of When Dimple Met Rishi, this wry, remarkable road-trip story is about questioning where you come from--and choosing the family that chooses you back.
