Filled with richly drawn characters, it''s by turns a love story and a war story, a coming-of-age and a tragedy, but ultimately a story about hope and the depth of family bonds. A true original." -Janelle Brown, New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Things and Watch Me Disappear " Take What You Can Carry by Gian Sardar is a beautifully written, absorbing novel that swept me away to 1979 Kurdistan and Los Angeles. Gian Sardar''s prose is breathtaking and her book took me on a fascinating journey that I''d never before imagined. I was gripped by Gian Sardar''s emotional storytelling until the final page." -Jill Santopolo, New York Times bestselling author of More Than Words "Lush and sensual and dangerous, Take What You Can Carry is an eye-opening story that deserves to be told. Those of us who love books know this is exactly why we read." -Steven Rowley, bestselling author of Lily and the Octopus and The Editor "At once heartbreaking and hopeful, this story''s magic is in the power its characters have to love-a partner, a family, a homeland, a people-deeply and unconditionally. "Timely, romantic, and thrilling from start to finish, Gian Sardar crafts a story with great beauty and heartbreak, reminding us the harder we work to truly know one another, the better we come to understand ourselves.
