An interesting view of Islamophobia and muslims living in the UK.
The story of a Muslim family living in London, persecuted by the ghost of their jihadi father. Narrated by five protagonists, who express five different views on today's attitudes of being Muslim in a western country: (non) respect towards religions, the traditional vs modern, what it means to be a Muslim in today's world, and in particular, it's the story of stigmatisation. An interesting, topical story that shows our diverse world, and how we MUST look at what is causing radicalisation.
One of my books of the year.

A demented tragic inversion of The Road
When I first started reading this, I was expecting an apocalyptic type novel - which in some ways it was for the main character Peggy.

Her father, who should have protected her, took the young child down an extremely dark path in this novel concluding with the ultimate horror in its final climax.

If I mention the themes it will probably end up spoiling the story but it is not a traditional Armageddon plot.

A trigger warning is required with this tragic, terrible story so read with an open mind.
