A searing story of powerlessness, fate and the freedom to control one’s own fate. The Pearl that Broke Its Shell “combines the cultural flavor and emotional resonance of works of Khalid Hassini, Jhumpa Lahiri and Lisa See.” Goodreads Set in Kabul in 2017 it is the story of Rahima, a modern day young woman and her aunt who, in the early 1900s, experienced the same limitations on females as did Rahima and her sisters. Only when the two women dressed as boys did their lives change.

Everyone is welcome For information Jean Dietrich 760 992-8225
