About this listen

Exile of the Heart is a deeply moving and lyrical memoir by journalist Rasheed Abou-Elsamh, chronicling a lifelong search for belonging across borders, languages, and faiths.

Born into a diplomatic family, Rasheed grew up in Geneva and Brasília, suspended between cultures, cosmopolitan yet rootless, privileged yet unsure of where home truly was. His story unfolds through vivid, intimate vignettes that reveal the beauty and ache of living between worlds.

From quiet family moments shadowed by unspoken truths to the loneliness of exile and the freedom of self-discovery, Exile of the Heart captures what it means to find identity beyond geography or expectation.

Both tender and fearless, this memoir explores themes of faith, identity, displacement, and resilience, asking what it truly means to belong — and reminding listeners that sometimes the truest home is the one we build within ourselves.
