HOMELAND - FERNANDO ARAMBURU KARTONIERT (TB)

In the heart of the Basque Country  two families are torn apart by the conflicting loyalties of
terrorism in this epic and heartbreaking story.   Miren and Bittori have lived side by side in
a small Basque town all their lives. Their husbands play cards together  their children play
and eventually go out drinking together. The terrorist threat posed by ETA seems to affect them
little.  When Bittori's husband starts receiving threatening letters - demanding money 
accusing him of being a police informant - she turns to her friend for help. But Miren's
loyalties are torn: her son has just been recruited as a terrorist and to denounce them would
be to condemn her own flesh and blood. Tensions rise  relationships fracture  and events move
towards a tragic conclusion . . .  'It's been a long time since I've read a book that was so
persuasive and moving' - Mario Vargas Llosa  author of Time of the Hero   'Is Aramburu the
Tolstoy of the Basque country  author of a Spanish language War and Peace?' - Guardian   
Homeland by Fernando Aramburu is an international bestseller  longlisted for the Dublin
Literary Award 2021. Set in Spain's Basque region  this gripping novel explores the impact of
Basque nationalism and separatist terrorism on families and communities.
