Now, at the age of sixty-three, he suffers a collapse that renders him unable to speak about things he thought he would one day have to. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJamal and Hanna have grown up and gone out into the world. They were both born in England but cannot shake a sense of apartness. Hanna calls herself Anna now, and has just moved to a new city to be near her boyfriend. She feels the relationship is headed somewhere serious, but the words have not yet been spoken out loud. Jamal, the listener of the family, moves into a student house and is captivated by a young woman with dark blue eyes and her own complex story to tell. Abbas's illness forces both children home, to the dark silences of their father and the fretful capability of their mother, Maryam, who has never thought to find herself-until now.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing","offers":[{"title":"The Last Gift | Abdulrazak Gurnah | Paperback | 9781639730001 | New | Fiction 1327827","offer_id":48162480914584,"sku":"1327827","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91ApwIlGl7L.jpg?v=1771870584","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/the-last-gift","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
