If we could all learn the lessons that Sister Carrie has to teach, the world would be a kinder and more compassionate place. Coles’ characters are fresh, relevant, and alternately heartbreaking and inspiring.

Coles has packed a generous share of growth and healing into a narrative that hums along like clockwork, surprising and delighting at every turn. Sister Carrie is filled to the brim with timely messages of love, healing, and tolerance in a world steeped in prejudice and ignorance. When Carrie and Zamel’s love turns to marriage, family and cultural values clash, suspicions arise, and the resulting tensions educate and inspire in surprising and affirming ways. When young Carrie Broward is orphaned and taken in by her sister Jessie, she experiences a difficult adjustment to life in her sister’s community and finds comfort in a loving relationship with Zamel, a handsome and polite young man from Iran. Coles is a touching family saga of love in the midst of clashing cultures.
