The Long Way Home is a moving, multi-generational story that follows the Al-Najjar family as they flee war-torn Syria in search of a better life in Canada. Told through shifting timelines—past, present, and future—the novel captures the emotional toll of separation, the struggles of immigration, and the quiet strength it takes to start over. As siblings Yasmine and Sami arrive in Canada ahead of their parents due to visa complications, they face uncertainty, hardship, and the weight of responsibility far beyond their years. From dusty Aleppo streets to snowy Saskatchewan fields, The Long Way Home is a deeply human journey about sacrifice, resilience, and the unbreakable bond of family.
