Watching over his sleeping son, the father reflects on the dangerous sea-crossing that lies before them. It is also a vivid portrait of their life in Homs, Syria, before the war, and of that city's swift transformation from a home into a deadly war zone. Impelled to write this story by the haunting image of young Alan Kurdi, the three-year-old Syrian boy whose body washed upon the beach in Turkey in September 2015, Hosseini hopes to pay tribute to the millions of families, like Kurdi's, who have been splintered and forced from home by war and persecution.RefugeesFictionFathers and sonsFictionSaviano, RobertoWilliams, Dan.b1438555703-06-2010-03-20991003775419707536LE003 813 HOS01.01 (2018) [dislocato c/o Museo OESEM - Faro Palascia]12003000068733le003pE15.00-l- 00000.i1592583323-04-20Sea prayer1752198UNISALENTOle00310-03-20ma -itait 00
