Jonas Hassen Khemiri's Sisters is a powerful novel exploring identity, belonging, and family secrets through the intertwined stories of two sisters navigating displacement and diaspora. Through shifting perspectives and fragmented narratives, Khemiri examines how migration shapes identity and how siblings can be both closest and most distant from each other. The novel becomes a meditation on what we inherit, what we choose to keep, and what we're forced to leave behind. WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Khemiri understands that displacement isn't just geographical, it's psychological and emotional. This novel reminds us that migration stories are always about loss and transformation, and that family bonds are tested most severely when everything else is taken away.
