PageMaster is proud to announce the release of Susan Glasier’s penetrating memoir Bend Like the Willow: A Tale of an Arab Promise. The book was recently reviewed by the Red Deer Advocate here.
Bend Like the Willow is a many-layered story of a young naïve American girl who sets out for her first year of university and finds instead a shocking introduction into a cross-cultural marriage of contradiction, mystery and eventual heartbreak. “If I take you to my country,” he tells her, “you must learn to bend like the willow or you will snap.”
“Susan Glasier has written a riveting memoir that reads like a novel. Bend Like the Willow is one of those rare books that gets under your skin and enters the bloodstream. It left me in tears.”—Wolfgang Carstens, Epic Rites Press
“I couldn’t put Bend Like the Willow down—read it in two nights—it really got my attention.”—Roy Cust, R C Appraisals
