Description
'Utterly moving, totally powerful. Honest, pure and true! An arrow to the heart. A warm hug. A light of hope in the dark. I could not put it down.' Laura Dockrill
The Silver Chain by Jion Sheibani follows Azadeh, a budding violinist on a music scholarship at an expensive private school. She is dealing with all the usual trials of being sixteen: trying her best to fit in, keep up, and have fun. However, as her mum's mental health spirals out of control, Azadeh's world starts to unravel. Her friendships fall away, and despite her and her dad's efforts to keep everything in check, their problems insist on taking over.
Feeling alone, it's her violin that eventually helps Azadeh to find her way back to her friends, herself, and even her mum.
This is a beautifully packaged, highly important, and irresistible novel about mental health struggles and the solace we find in music and rhythm, friendship, family, and honesty. Illustrated throughout.
