Princess Mira (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781913704131)

"Do you think we will ever come back Khalid?" Amira asks.

"I really hope so Amira, I really do...and maybe, just maybe, we will return to this same willow tree, if it is still standing".

Amira turns back one final time to gaze upon her childhood park. As she muses into deep daydream over past memories, she feels a part of her soul seal itself with an everlasting imprint on the walls and streets of her town, the swings of Shamsa Park, and the weeping willow tree that stood like a protective guardian, for this was the only departing gift she could present to her broken home of Aleppo.

14 year old Amira, an aspiring poet, finds herself dawning upon the new era of the Syrian civil war that commences in 2011, bringing a vast diaspora and mass exodus of Syrian refugees into different countries within Europe. Neither Amira nor Khalid, her oldest childhood friend, can foresee where the journey will take them...

Testing all their limits, follow their extraordinary, heart-breaking pilgrimage through which they discover a deeper meaning to what love, friendship and separation really means.
