The Coin (2024) is Yasmin Zaher’s only published novel to date. The book follows a woman whose daily rituals of cleaning and spending become both a coping mechanism and a form of self-destruction as she tries to build a life far from home.
As a debut, The Coin attracted notice for its sharp prose and willingness to portray an unlikable narrator with sympathy and precision. Readers interested in contemporary literary fiction about diaspora and identity will find it worth their time.
