The River Has Roots by Amal El-Mohtar

A lyrical journey of place, memory, and magic

In The River Has Roots, Amal El-Mohtar crafts a spellbinding tale of memory, migration, and belonging. Through lush prose and layered storytelling, she explores how the places we come from shape who we become—and how we carry those places with us, even when we leave them behind.

Perfect for fans of poetic storytelling and magical realism, this book invites you to reflect, connect, and get lost in a world where rivers remember and roots reach deeper than time.
