Coles There's Plenty of Sunshine Where You're Headed: Stories at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
From the award-winning author of Dearborn, a tragicomic story collection that moves between Lebanon and Michigan, exploring migration, war, family, and the enduring pull of home.
In a village haunted by unexploded cluster bombs, a chorus of matriarchs obsess over a poet-turned-mayor who struggles to lead with a confident hand. While patrolling a public pool in Dearborn, Michigan, a 72-year-old lifeguard reminisces on his youthful days at a Beirut beach club and finds unexpected companionship in a glamorous widow. Driven to the brink by his visiting mother-in-law, a factory worker seeks sanctuary in a rented storage unit—a private world that struggles to stay insulated from the trauma of global conflict.
Spanning the 1970s to the present day, There’s Plenty of Sunshine Where You’re Headed alternates stories set in Lebanon and Dearborn, tracing lives linked by migration, memory, loss, and longing. With his trademark humor and sincerity, Zeineddine offers a resonant portrait of the Arab and Arab American experience and the stubborn, surprising ways people keep building lives, no matter where they land.
