Nahl Halab, by: Kristi Lefteri

The novel "Nahlal Alepp" is nothing but a fictional literary work. But Nouri and Afraa were only formed in my heart and mind as a result of every step I took alongside the children and families whom I succeeded in reaching Greece. I wrote this novel as a means to light the way and to say that we are with the people, the people who constitute the amount of our concern and interest more than anything in the world when we suffered this great and severe loss. The novel revolves around deep loss, but it is also a novel that elevates the status of love and finding light. In this novel, I convey to you what I saw, heard, and felt in the streets of Athens and its camps.
