A heartwarming historical fiction novel that begins with a ship, a seed, and a silent promise.

In 1913, Yusuf and Anya arrive in New York City with nothing but hope, a few heirlooms, and the weight of an unspoken past. As they navigate tenement life, war, family loss, and assimilation across the 20th century, they plant the roots of a tradition that will echo for generations to come: a quiet, improvised Thanksgiving meal that becomes their lifeline. Spanning the 1910s to the 1970s, First Harvest is a sweeping historical family saga that traces four generations of an immigrant family as they build, fracture, and rebuild through the decades. At its core, it's a deeply moving novel about family secrets, cultural identity, and the small rituals that make us whole.
