"Set in East Africa, the Middle East, Canada, and the U.S., Things Are Good Now explores the scars of violence and the weight of love and guilt on the soul. In these pages, women, men, and children who've crossed continents in search of a better life find themselves struggling with the chaos of displacement and the religious and cultural clashes they face in their new homes."-- Provided by publisher.
