In the world of pandemonium, war, destruction and with nations waging battles against each other, it has one thing still left amongst humans. That thing is love. A God In Every Stone by Kamila Shamsie is a narrative about camaraderie, inequality, adoration and unfaithfulness.An adolescent English woman is sprinting up an antique mountainside that is decorated with figs and cypress trees. This woman, Vivian Rose Spencer, does not know that ultimately she will discern the Temple of Zeus and find her calling for love and adventure. In another part of the world, thousands of miles away, is a young twenty-year-old lad called Pathan Quayyum Gul who is enlisted himself for the British army. He unearths the strong values of brotherhood and amity.A year later Gul loses his eye in the battle and is returning on the same train as Vivian. They meet as strangers but they don't know that fate will again bring them together after fifteen years. Vivian is searching for her love and is on the hunt. Maybe the mystifying woman who has a quirky green eye will bond them again. The waging world with its fights for freedom could bring these two like minded humans together again. The prehistoric artifact could also tie them. The ancient city of Peshawar where once delicate fruit orchards and ornate houses existed is now under the cruel domains of the British. The people who died in the war, in the end, are honored with bright red rose petals. A God In Every Stone by Kamila Shamsie is a story of war, loyalty, courage and realizing what to truly fight for. This book was published by Bloomsbury Publishing in 2014 and in hardcover.
