The Beekeeper of Aleppo

Heartbreaking yet beautiful story of two refugees. Its a cruel and brutal experience they go through and its even sadder ifvyou realize that this is what most refugees go through. Fleeing from a war they didn't cause and starting a new life they never wanted.

Diese Bewertung richtet sich nicht an mögliche Leser des Buches, sondern an die Homepagegestalter von Thalia. Sie bieten auf ihrer Seite eine Leseprobe für ein englishes Buch an und diese Leseprobe ist dann in Kyrillisch geschrieben. Das passt doch nicht zusammen, bitte ändern.

I really liked it but as a syrian from aleppo I think Aleppo was descriped different from the reality. It felt like they are talking about a different Syria. But the journey of Nuri and Afra and the description of the places, especially in Athen were on point and kind of felt familiar for me, even though I had a wayyyy easier experience. I loved how much empathy this story can create and how lovely the author is.
