The Djinn's Apple
by Djamila Morani & translated by Sawad Hussain
This is a fabulous Young Adult novel set during the Abbasid caliphate. When Nardeen’s home is stormed by armed men frantically searching for something or someone, she is the only member of her Barmakid family who escapes. Years later, the now teenage Nardeen begins to unravel the mystery of what led to the massacre of her family that night. A beautifully written historical novel set in Baghdad’s golden age.
