2026-2027 Senior English Elective Required: The Empire Writes Back


Home Fire by Kamila Shamsie is a contemporary retelling of Sophocles' Antigone, exploring themes of love, loyalty, family, and faith in a modern, post-9/11 world, particularly focusing on British Muslim families. The novel follows the lives of three British-Pakistani siblings--Isma, Aneeka, and Parvaiz--whose lives become entangled with the son of a powerful, anti-immigrant politician, leading to devastating consequences as they navigate their identities and allegiances to family, country, and religion. It was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2017. 

Paperback published by Riverhead Books in 2018. 288 pages. ISBN: 9780735217690
