«Honor perdido» is the novel by Norma Khouri, published by Debolsillo in paperback (233 pages, in Spanish).
The narrative follows Dalia and her friend Norma, who try to build a future of their own with a hair salon in present-day Jordan, far from the roles their culture imposes on them. When Dalia meets a young Christian man and falls in love with him, she confronts the codes of honor and the expectations of her community, with consequences that mark them both.
This edition, translated by Ángeles Leiva Morales, has the original title «Honor Lost: Love and Death in Modern Day Jordan» and corresponds to number 612 of the Bestseller collection from Debolsillo.
A book of interest for readers of social criticism and gender studies, as well as for those seeking stories set in the Middle East.
