About the book: 

Nuruddin Farah is widely recognized as a literary genius. He proves it yet again with Knots,  the story of a woman who returns to her roots and discovers much more than herself. 

Born in Somalia but raised in North America, Cambara flees a failed marriage by traveling to Mogadishu. And there, amid the devastation and brutality, she finds that her most unlikely ambitions begin to seem possible.

Conjuring the unforgettable extremes of a fractured Muslim culture and the wayward Somali state through the eyes of a strong, compelling heroine, Knots is another Farah masterwork.
