Mai Al-Nakib, AN UNLASTING HOME: A Novel

Zibby is joined by professor and author Mai Al-Nakib to discuss her debut novel, An Unlasting Home, an intergenerational story inspired by Kuwait's short-lived attempt to charge blasphemy as a capital crime. The two talk about what Mai loves most about being a teacher, her unique educational history and journey to writing, and the women in her life who helped shape her. Mai also shares how she kept track of such a massive family tree as she wrote and what her typical writing process looks like.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3qrHT8NBookshop: https://bit.ly/3RQNUHLSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
