About this item

A deeply moving novel about a forbidden love between two boys in war-torn Syria and the fallout that ripples through their adult lives. Hussam and Wassim are teenage boys living in Syria during America's 2003 invasion of Iraq. When a surprise discovery of their romantic relationship results in tragedy, their lives, and those of their families, are shattered. Wassim promises Hussam his protection, but ten years into the future, he has failed to keep his promise. Wassim is on the streets, seeking shelter from both the city and the civil war storming his country. Meanwhile Hussam, now on the other side of the world, remains haunted by his own ghosts, doing his utmost to drown them out with every vice imaginable. Split between Vancouver and war-torn Damascus, The Foghorn Echoes is a tragic love story about coping with shared traumatic experience and devastating separation. As Hussam and Wassim come to terms with the past, they begin to realize the secret that haunts them is not the only secret that formed them.
