Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The narrative centers on Brother Christopher, a Vermont monk, whose life intersects with Sahro Abdi Muse, a Somali refugee, and Teddy Fletcher, an Afghan war veteran, during a late spring blizzard. As Sahro embarks on a perilous journey from Somalia to Canada, the novel explores themes of displacement and human connection. Brother Christopher grapples with his fading monastic life, while Teddy seeks peace with his traumatic past. Through evocative prose, the author highlights the struggles of marginalized communities and the profound ties that bind them.
