[Interlink Publishing Group] Shortlisted for the International Prize for Arabic Fiction 2015. At times as cold and hard-edged as the skyscrapers in its backdrop, The Ninety-Ninth Floor follows the struggles and triumphs of Majed as he makes it in Manhattan at the turn of the century, after surviving the devastating 1982 massacre at the Sabra and Shatila refugee camp. A Palestinian born and raised in Lebanon, Majed creates a new life for himself in the glittery world of New York City’s computer games industry. But with all his success, Majed’s past continues to haunt him. His relationship with Hilda, a Lebanese woman from a right-wing Christian family, exposes his innermost fears, worries, and dark secrets. A multi-voiced narration, The Ninety-Ninth Floor conveys the brutality that war leaves on the people who experience it. It is also a love story that asks questions about the ability of passion to overcome hatred and difference.

Hands-down my bestseller, and S&S has been great about replenishment.

This is a great book. I have no problem with the book, but the publisher shipping them is completely careless in the way that they're packing them. . It's frustrating because 15 out of 23 books have some sort of cover or spine damage and people are paying hard earned money to get these books. They want them to be in good quality. I know that they send books to big bookstores that don't have these types of cover issues so I feel like it's just careless packing to small businesses.
