Fairytales for Lost Children - by Diriye Osman (Paperback)

FAIRYTALES FOR LOST CHILDREN is a captivating collection of stories that delve into the complexities of family, identity, and the immigrant experience through the eyes of young, gay, and lesbian Somalis.

With praise from renowned authors such as NURUDDIN FARAH and ALISON BECHDEL, this book is a must-read for anyone looking to explore the intersection of culture, identity, and mental illness.
