Book
In the summer of 2014, three estranged sisters are drawn back into each other's orbits through the discovery of their late father's lost paintings. As Mediha, Zainab, and Ishtar lay claim to his legacy - an inheritance laced with exile, betrayal, and an Iraq they no longer recognise - Zainab's son Nizar, a traumatized war correspondent, returns to the family fold. As summer bleeds into autumn and the truth about the family paintings unfurls, Mediha, Zainab, and Ishtar are forced to confront the personal and political betrayals that tore their family apart. Spanning continents and decades, 'Floodlines' grapples with legacy, memory, and family secrets, and charts the emotional and political aftershocks of the US-led invasion of Iraq.
