Suslov’s Daughter
As a young man growing up in South Yemen, Imran finds himself drawn to Hawiya, the daughter of a high-ranking official in the ruling Marxist party. He departs Aden, the seaport city of his childhood, to study literature in Paris, hoping to ""see the sunset of capitalism with his own eyes."" Years later, he returns to Yemen and meets Hawiya again—only to find that she now wears a niqab. The novel spans the 1960s to the early twenty-first century, from the independence of southern Yemen and the subsequent establishment of The People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen to the Unification of Yemen in 1990 and the Arab Spring.
