A VERY LARGE EXPANSE OF SEA
Εκδότης FARSHORE , ISBN 9781405292603
From the New York Times bestselling author of the Shatter Me series comes a
semi-autobiographical powerful and heartrending contemporary YA novel
about fear, first love, and the devastating impact of prejudice
It's 2002, a year after 9/11, and Shirin has just started at yet another new high school.
It's an extremely turbulent time politically, but especially so for a sixteen-year-old Muslim
girl who's tired of being stereotyped. Shirin is never surprised by how horrible people can
be. She's tired of the rude stares, the degrading comments - even the physical violence
she endures as a result of her race, her religion, and the hijab she wears every day.
Shirin drowns her frustrations in music and spends her afternoons break-dancing with her
brother. But then she meets Ocean James. He's the first person in forever who really
seems to want to get to know her. It terrifies her -they seem to come from two
irreconcilable worlds - and Shirin has had her guard up against the world for so long that
she's not sure she'll ever be able to let it down.
