• An orphan grapples with gender, siblinghood, family, & coming-of-age as a Muslim in America in this lyrical debut novel that “shimmers with love” (Los Angeles Times), from the acclaimed author of If They Come For Us “Haunting . . . a knife-sharp story of self-discovery.” — People
In this heartrending, lyrical debut work of fiction, Fatimah Asghar traces the intense bond of three orphaned siblings who, after their parents die, are left to raise one another.
The youngest, Kausar, grapples with the incomprehensible loss of their parents as she also charts out her own understanding of gender; Aisha, the middle sister, spars with her “crybaby” younger sibling as she desperately tries to hold on to her sense of family in an impossible situation; & Noreen, the eldest, does her best in the role of sister-mother while also trying to create a life for herself, on her own terms.
As Kausar grows up, she must contend with the collision of her private & public worlds, & choose whether to remain in the life of love, sorrow, & codependency that she’s known or carve out a new path for herself.
When We Were Sisters tenderly examines the bonds & fractures of sisterhood, names the perils of being three Muslim American girls alone against the world, & ultimately illustrates how those who’ve lost everything might still make homes in one another.
