Shams is a young Syrian refugee woman who lives in Shatila, one of the world’s oldest refugee camps. She dreams of education and living a better life in Europe. But there are no schools in the camp, and her family opposes her dreams. Mr Tony, a poet running a charity, seems to offer a way out. But the camp appears to be taking on a life of its own, as a malevolent, all-consuming and seductive presence.
Meike Ziervogel is the author of six novels. She founded an award-winning publishing house in the UK, Peirene Press, and co-founded Alsama Project, an innovative NGO providing secondary education in refugee camps in the Middle East.
