About the book
Twenty-year-old Sibel thought she had concrete plans for the summer. She would care for her grandmother in Istanbul, visit her father's grave, and study for the MCAT. Instead, she finds herself watching Turkish soap operas and self-diagnosing her own possible chronic illness. Delving into her family's history, the narrative weaves through periods of political unrest in Turkey. Told with pathos and humour, Sibel's search for strange and unusual cures is disrupted as she begins to see how she might heal herself through the care of others.
