Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Brotherhood. Belief. Becoming.In the wake of 9/11, the world changed overnight-and so did college life for a group of young Muslims struggling to find their place in America. The Circle We Made follows Tariq, a determined African American freshman at Columbia University, who steps onto campus with dreams of success but soon finds himself navigating a tangled world of faith, race, and identity.He's not alone. Around him, a diverse brotherhood begins to form-Sunni, Shi'a, immigrant, native-born, devout, and barely hanging on. From late-night debates in dorm rooms to moments of quiet prayer in campus corners, these young men and women confront everything from Islamophobia to internal doubt, from fractured family ties to the intoxicating pull of freedom.As protests erupt, friendships deepen, and secrets unravel, each character is forced to answer the question: What kind of Muslim-and what kind of person-will I become?Raw, reflective, and deeply human, The Circle We Made is a powerful coming-of-age novel about what it means to believe in something greater-while trying not to lose yourself in the process.
