The Beekeeper of Aleppo

by Christy Lefteri

The Beekeeper of Aleppo

by Christy Lefteri

"The Beekeeper of Aleppo" follows the poignant journey of Nuri, a beekeeper, and his wife, Afra, an artist, as they flee their war-torn city of Aleppo, Syria. Owing to the brutality of war, Afra becomes blind, and together they face the treacherous path toward a new life in Britain. Haunted by the loss of everything they once held dear, they navigate through dangers, both physical and emotional, struggling to retain their love and sanity. As they travel from Turkey to Greece, their final hope is to reconnect with Mustafa, Nuri's cousin, who offers them a semblance of the past through beekeeping. This is a story of love in the shadow of war, a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
