Beyond our ideas of right-doing and wrong doing, there is a field. I will meet you there. -Rumi
The Middle East is spinning out of control, but what does that mean to a simple fast-order cook in Central California? Everything—his family, his love life, his future, his purpose. And it may be that he means a great deal to the Middle East. Some are willing to kill him and others are willing to risk their lives to protect him.
This adventure takes the reader to Turkey, Iran, and Arabia. Themes of historical religions of the Middle East, modern interpretations, truth, understanding, and what the future holds for this volatile region are interwoven throughout the book. Romance and its seeming impossibility provide a metaphor for all that is wonderful about this region, and all that may be suffocating hope. The unspoken question through most of the book asks is something more happening as this adventure unfolds?

Leyla Celebi is sure of herself until she isn’t. Magenta and cinnabar are her favorite colors. In her words, “They are both variations of red—magenta being more purple and cinnabar being more orange. Red symbolizes unity with God, and departing worldly life for spiritual life. Magenta is the sunrise and cinnabar is the sunset, my two favorite times of the day.” Her signature perfume is a spicey variation of her previous favorite perfume that is unfortunately out of production. Early in our introduction to Leyla she has an experience with a kind compliment on her perfume choice. “I hope this doesn’t sound weird or anything, but that is a nice perfume you are wearing,” attempting to start up a conversation again. “Thank you, Mr. Allen. It’s Quelque Fleur by Hubigant. They don’t make it anymore and I don’t know why. I get more compliments when I wear it than any other perfume,” Leyla replied. After the experiences in Kitab Kabbani, Leyla is less enamored by the tame aromas of her past. Her signature scent has a magenta tonka bean and galbanum base note, a spicey cinnamon and ginger heart note, and a cinnabar and antirrhinum top note. If you are preparing to take on the world on your own terms, this may be the scent for you. Thaddeus Allen was a short-order cook in Central California. Literally overnight he found himself embroiled in an international adventure, a deadly search and a romance of the ages. His signature cologne embodies an authentic amber base note, a meek and teachable heart note of sage and fennel, with a California Central Valley citrus top note. Badri Kabbani is an international trader. His import and export business takes him all over the world and the Middle East in particular. He is comfortable in a New York Fortune 500 boardroom, or in a corner café in a rural village in the Levant. His is loyal and traditional, but also adventurous and a calculated risk taker. The foundation of his signature scent includes trade route Oud, Frankincense and Bakhoor, a lingering trail of Ramadan heart note, and an Eid-el-Fitr top note of dates and cardamom. |
