In an unnamed country torn apart by war, six strangers are compelled to share their darkest secrets. Taking pen to paper, each character attempts to put in writing what they can't bring themselves to say to the person they love - mother, father, brother, lost love. Their words form a chain of dark confessions, none of which reaches the intended recipient.

Profound, troubling and deeply human, Voices of the Lost tells the moving story of characters living on the periphery, battling with displacement, devastating poverty and the demons within themselves. From one of today's most talented Arabic writers, Voices of the Lost is an urgent story of lives intimately woven together in a society that is tearing itself apart.

Hoda Barakat was born in Beirut in 1952. She studied French Literature at the Lebanese University and moved to Paris with her family in 1989. She has published five novels and two plays. Her novels have been translated into several languages and received numerous prestigious prize nominations. The Tiller of Waters (2000) was awarded the Naguib Mahfouz Medal for Literature while her fifth novel, The Kingdom of This Earth, (2012) was longlisted for the International Prize for Arabic Fiction in 2013. In 2015, she was shortlisted for the Man Booker International Prize (at the time awarded in recognition of an author's body of work). She currently lives in France.
