These three women and their families witness Oman evolve from a traditional, slave-owning society slowly redefining itself after the colonial era, to the crossroads of its complex present. Elegantly structured and taut, Celestial Bodies is a coiled spring of a novel, telling of Oman's coming-of-age through the prism of one family's losses and loves. *65007$aSøsken$2Bokbasen AS$9nob$_41072900 *651 4$aOman$_18686500 *651 7$aArabiske halvøy$2Bokbasen AS$9nob$_41109600 *655 7$aRomaner$0https://id.nb.no/vocabulary/ntsf/258$9nob$2Bokbasen AS$_42659300 *655 7$aRomaner$0https://id.nb.no/vocabulary/ntsf/258$9nob$2norvok$_42659300 ^
