This is an urgent and necessary reckoning about what it means to live in the West today. As an immigrant, Omar El Akkad believed the West would be a place of freedom and justice for all. But in the past 20 years, reporting on the various Wars on Terror, Ferguson, climate change, Black Lives Matter protests, and more, and watching the unmitigated slaughter in Gaza, he has come to the conclusion that much of what the West promises is a lie. This work is a chronicle of that painful realization, a moral grappling with what it means, as a citizen of the US, as a father, to carve out some sense of possibility during these devastating times.

Mari is an eleven-year-old witch who loves her life. Indeed, what’s not to love about spending time with her amazing mothers, hanging out with her clever friends, eating delicious food and experimenting with fashion? But, if you ask any of the other witches in town, Mari loves her life a little too much. After all, a wonderful witch puts the needs of others, before herself. Magic should be used to help humans – not (for example) creating giant donuts for you and your classmates to scoff. But Mari doesn’t care what other people think of her – and when disaster strikes her town, she’ll need to convince the other witches to have the courage to break free, too, and be just as wildly unwonderful as she is.
