About The Book

From the multi award-winning Irish-Italian author of Don’t Move comes an international bestseller wrought in the fires of love and war

The international bestseller that masterfully explores the depths of love and the power of motherhood, set against the backdrop of the Bosnian war

Gemma hasn't been back to Sarajevo in sixteen years. She returns to teach her son Pietro about the city of his birth and the father he never knew. But the visit brings with it impassioned memories of her love affair with Pietro's father, their determination to have a child at any cost, and their deep connection to the city even as war threatened to destroy it.

Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Twice Born is a tale of the brutality of conflict, but also of the acts of generosity that emerge from war. A heartrending and inspiring tale of the ties that bind families, fused in a time of crisis.
