DESCRIPTION:Join us as we discuss The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri. \n\nBooks are available at the Adult Help Desk. \n\nAbout the book: \n\nThe unforgettable love story of a mother blinded by loss and her husband who insists on their survival as they undertake the Syrian refugee trail to Europe.\n\n\n\nNuri is a beekeeper\; his wife\, Afra\, an artist. They live a simple life\, rich in family and friends\, in the beautiful Syrian city of Aleppo--until the unthinkable happens. When all they care for is destroyed by war\, they are forced to escape.
