From the internationally acclaimed author of North of Dawn comes a beautiful, hopeful novel about one woman's return to war-ravaged Mogadishu (Time) Called one of the most sophisticated voices in modern fiction (The New York Review of Books), Nuruddin Farah is widely recognized as a literary genius.

And there, amid the devastation and brutality, she finds that her most unlikely ambitions begin to seem possible. Conjuring the unforgettable extremes of a fractured Muslim culture and the wayward Somali state through the eyes of a strong, compelling heroine, Knots is another Farah masterwork.
