Set during Lebanonâs civil war, We Walked On immerses listeners in the landscape of war, weaving political unrest into everyday life. With Rita, a fourteen-year-old girl, and Hisham, her thirty-year-old Arabic teacher, Chehade has created two richly drawn characters who counter violence with the redemptive power of books and human connection and find authentic hope in untenable circumstances. We Walked On is a timely novel about what itâs like to live in a war zone, how war corrupts our moral sense, and how to survive and endure in an unjust world.
