A dazzling, electrifying, and thought-provoking novel for readers of “Maame and Honey Girl”, “Things Left Unsaid” is a mesmerizing and deeply-felt exploration of discovering your place in the world and the lasting power of love.
When twenty-six-year-old Shirin Bayat bumps into Kian at a house party in London, she is taken aback by the immediate feelings that resurface. It's been a decade since they were close friends at school, before painful events pulled them apart, suddenly and seemingly forever. Ever since, Shirin has lived with the aching weight of things left unsaid between them.
Now they're back in each other's lives, at a time when Shirin needs someone she can trust the most. Feeling stuck in a sea of slippery friendships and deeply burned out by her publishing job, Kian is a bright light amongst a sea of gray. There's nothing worse than losing the person you trust most with your deepest secrets and desires, and Shirin and Kian are determined to hold tightly to each other.
But of course, life often has other plans. Will it be different this time around, or are Shirin and Kian destined to fall apart once more?
