Aleppo Beekeeper Book Description A man looking for love in the midst of war, courage in the midst of darkness, hope in the midst of pain... Nuri, a beekeeper, and his painter wife Afra live a happy life in the beautiful city of Aleppo, Syria. When the war, which they are afraid to even think about, causes them the greatest pain, they are forced to flee their hometown and embark on a dangerous journey, first through Turkey and then through Greece, towards their uncertain future in England. But before they escaped from the land of their birth, they experienced so much pain that the lines between reality and dream, light and darkness, life and death disappeared. Afra, who once fascinated everyone with her paintings, became blind because of what she saw. As Nuri and Afra navigate a shattered world, they have to face the pain of their losses and face dangers that will fill the hearts of even those who think they are brave with fear. Beyond that, they have another journey to take if they want to find each other again. And perhaps the most difficult thing is to overcome this real journey that will bring their souls together. The Aleppo Beekeeper puts people's faces in the Syrian Civil War through Nuri, whose greatest passion in life is bees, and his painter wife Afra, who is blinded by pain, and tells in an unforgettable language how strong our souls can be even when the world becomes unrecognizable.
