No One May Remain Agatha Christie, Come, I'll Tell You How I Live

Hussein is one among millions of displaced Syrians who lost their homes and country, seeking refuge around the world. His narrative biography relates the experiences of an asylum-seeker's interactions with people he meets after leaving Syria, each chapter a new facet of his journey. Entwining themes of belonging, identity, and family, the stories diverge in chronology and capture snapshots of myriad locations, ultimately reuniting around the central conversation between the refugee and Agatha Christie, though her biography, Come, tell me how you live, and mystery novel, And Then There Were None. From his Syrian hometown to Lebanon, Egypt, Scotland, and England, Hussein maps the path of a man cast out of his familiar world. The reader falls into the refugee's nostalgic and painful recollections, his sometimes bitter, sometimes hopeful speculations. No One May Remain is a raw and candid perspective from a Kurdish-Syrian author on the war in Syria, the refugee crisis, and life for a refugee in the West.
