Waiting for the Past Hussein Hadiya
Hadiya Hussein's poignant 2017 novel plunges readers into a haunting and powerful story of resilience. Yusef, suspected by the regime of being a dissident, has disappeared--presumably either imprisoned or executed. Set at the end of Saddam Hussein's brutal reign, the novel follows Narjis, a young Iraqi woman, on her quest to discover what has become of the man she loves.
Together they form a bond, and Narjis comes to understand the depth of loss and grief of those around her. On her journey, Narjis receives shelter from a Kurdish family who welcome her into their home where she meets Umm Hani, an older woman who is searching for her long-lost son. At the same time, she is introduced to the warm hospitality of the Kurdish community, settling into their everyday lives, and embracing their customs.
