A humorous look at arranged marriages, betrayals and affairs...
Finalist New Generation Indie Book Awards 2013. Adel and Kamil, 
two young good-looking Turkish men, try to immigrate to North America. 
Adel's ruthless grand-uncle arranges him to marry Yonka 
(his spoiled obnoxious cousin) in exchange for his immigration 
status in Canada. The problem is Yonka and Adel hate each other. 
The drama heats up even more when Adel has an affair with Nora, 
his beautiful English teacher which ruins Yonka's plans. And to add 
to this, his best friend Kamil has a big secret of his own. How did his 
life turn into a Turkish soap opera? The novel paints a vivid portrayal 
of the lives and struggles of young modern Muslim adults trying to 
make a life in the West.

as the Kite Runner and the Brick Lane. Anne-Rae Vasquez's work
