Home Fire

by Kamila Shamsie

The novel 'Home Fire' unfolds the emotional journey of the Pasha family, torn by conflicting loyalties, aspirations, and the specters of terrorism. Isma, the anchor of her family since their mother's passing, finally gets the opportunity to pursue her academic dreams in the US. Yet, she's haunted by concern for her siblings, the rebellious Aneeka in London and the lost Parvaiz, who seeks identity in his estranged father's militant legacy. Their paths cross with Eamonn, the son of a London political heavyweight, who becomes entangled with the Pasha siblings, binding their fate to his. Embedded in the narrative are themes of love, sacrifice, and the relentless pursuit of personal identity. Tensions rise, alliances shift, and in their struggle, each character confronts the question: how far would you go for the ones you love? 'Home Fire' is a moving tableau of love, ideology, and the wrenching choices that define our lives.
