Graybill of Azianlu

Fiction

“A riveting account of life as a missionary in Persia, the story of Nan Graybill is a tale of friendship, intrigue, murder, tragedy, resilience, and love. Historical fiction at its finest, Graybill of Azianlu invites its readers into the complex negotiations required of Christian missionaries teaching and living amidst Syriac-speaking Christians, Shi‘i and Sunni Muslims, and British bureaucrats on the eve of and during World War I.”
