“Good People is a stunning read. I could not recommend it more enthusiastically. . . . What a spectacular triumph this book is. This is the Afghan novel I have been eagerly waiting for.” — Khaled Hosseini
High praise from one of the most beloved voices in contemporary fiction. And it’s deserved.
After fleeing a war-torn Afghanistan, the Sharaf family rebuilds their life as refugees in Northern Virginia. Years of sacrifice pay off — a successful business, a prestigious neighborhood, children in the best schools. Zorah, the eldest daughter, is the apple of her father’s eye. By every measure, they have achieved the American Dream.
Then the unthinkable happens.
Suddenly, the family is thrust into the court of public opinion. Neighbors whisper. Stories shift. Was the Sharafs’ happy household everything it appeared to be — or was it a carefully constructed façade? Good People asks that most unsettling of questions: how well do we ever really know the people next door?
Told through a kaleidoscope of perspectives — those who know the family intimately, and those who only believe they do — this novel is urgent, layered, and impossible to put down. It’s a story about community, identity, and the dangerous distance between perception and truth.
The kind of book that lingers long after you’ve turned the last page. The kind of book that starts conversations. The kind of book we love having on our shelves here at the Cove.
