The Pianist of Yarmouk (Ahmad A.); Penguin, 2019

A powerful, moving account of life in Damascus, and a story of how the power of music can unite people in the face of conflict. One morning on the outskirts of Damascus, two starving friends are walking through their desolate city and come across a familiar street that has been turned to rubble, concrete bridges towering above them like tombs and houses turned inside out. Aeham turns to the only comfort he has left and pushes his piano into the street to play a song of home to his fellow Syrians. It is a song that will reach far beyond the the streets of his home and carry consequences he could never have dreamed of.
