Salama Kassab was a pharmacy student when the cries or
reedom broke out in Syria. She still had her parents and her
big brother; she still had her home. She was even supposed
to be meeting a boy to talk about marriage.
Now Salama volunteers at a hospital in Homs, helping the
wounded who flood through the doors. She knows that
she should be thinking about leaving, but who will help the
people o her beloved country i she doesn't? With her heart
so conflicted, her mind has conjured a vision to spur her to
action. His name is Khaw , and he haunts her nights with
hallucinations o everything she has lost.
But even with Khaw pressing her to leave, when she crosses
paths with Kenan, the boy she was supposed to meet on that
ate ul day, she starts to doubt her resolve in leaving home at
all. Soon, Salama must learn to see the events around her or
what they truly are-not a war, but a revolution-and decide
how she, too, will cry or Syria's reedom.
