Love's Year

By Farook Qais

Sometimes you hear the old adage 'it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.' This may not be true for Isaac and Alicia. Love's Year is about two university students that need each other to become better people. They're both Muslim, but Isaac is of Indian caste and Alicia is Bengali. They're different; Alicia talks to God on a daily basis, Isaac has tattoos. Nevertheless they fall in love. They shouldn't and they know that, but they have a plan in place for the ultimate happy ending. All of a sudden Alicia has to choose; does she sacrifice her upbringing and relations with her family in order to be with Isaac or does she stay true to them and leave Isaac behind as nothing but a memory? This story carries a broad range of relatable topics regarding culture, food, sex, psychology and humour. There are characters of all ages and the voices of each of them make for a truly emotive and intimate story. Find out how Isaac and Alicia meet. Find out how they get to know one another. Find out their inner thoughts and feelings and find out how they deal with life's constant challenges. Witness their love grow as they embark on a journey to Hawaii. Feel what it's like to be in their shoes as Muslim people. Imagine their every touch as they express their love for one another. Maybe you're a father and can relate to Alicia's dad. Maybe you're a mum and can relate to Isaac's mother. Maybe you'll read this story and look back on your study days and recall your first true love. Maybe you want insight into what it's like to be a young Muslim woman, pressured by expectations and relieved by a simple boy. Maybe you're a dreamer and you want Isaac to succeed. The story is there to be felt and absorbed, but it's not for children, not for those that read in the local library but never read in bed. The story is graphic in places. Mouth-watering if you will.Try it.
