Book Musings: The Map of Salt and Stars by Jennifer Zeynab Joukhadar

The Map of Salt and Stars by Jennifer Zeynab Joukhadar

After two weeks of flipping few pages every night before going to sleep, I finally was able to finish this astounding book written by Jennifer Zeynab Joukhadar. This is a story of Nour, an American-Syrian girl whose life went off the loop after her father died of cancer in America and moved back to Syria. 

The book also tells alternately the story of Rawiya, about the same age as Nour, that happened eight hundred years earlier on her quest to conquer, explore and map the world. 

I always say that I’m not a hard -core reviewer of books, I’m more of a perspective reader. Getting lost into the story and imbibing the course of life of the characters. For the nth time I’ve proven that literary characters have greater power to change us than real people do. After reading this book, Nour will be with me for a little while.

The setting happened like long time ago so definitely Alaska wasn’t as populous as it is now. Had it been me, I could already have died of frost. But that’s what humans are, we’re so adaptive that we always confront our environment head on to survive if not to thrive.
