Evil Eye

Description

From the bestselling author of A Woman Is No Man comes a deeply moving novel about cultural identity, motherhood, and the weight of intergenerational trauma.

Yara Murad has worked tirelessly to escape the shadows of her turbulent Brooklyn upbringing. Now, she has everything she ever wanted—a fulfilling career, a loving husband, and two daughters. But beneath the surface, she feels an unshakable sense of restlessness and unexplained anger. When a workplace incident threatens her carefully built life, Yara’s mother blames an old family curse. Though Yara dismisses superstition, she soon finds herself confronting the past she thought she had left behind.

A poignant and thought-provoking exploration of heritage, self-acceptance, and the hidden wounds we carry, this novel is a must-read for fans of literary fiction and emotionally resonant storytelling.
