Yemen in 1920: Adela Damari's uncle, cousin and aunt introduce Adela to the powerful rituals of henna tattooing. Adela's eyes are opened to the world, and she begins to understand what it means to love another and one's heritage. She is imperiled when her parents die and a drought threatens their way of life. She and her extended family flee to the city of Aden, where Adela encounters old loves, discovers her true calling, and is ultimately betrayed by the people and customs she held dear. |
