Hiam is the story of a journey through both a psychic and geographical landscape. Hiam, an Arab migrant woman, abandons Adelaide to unravel her life and memories on the road north. This is a story of a migrant's experience in a strange land, a novel which explores the pressures, frailties and strengths of exiled communities. It is a universal story of grief, courage and the will to live fully in the world.
