''Mercy is not an ointment for cruelty.'' Disquiet transports the reader to the contemporary Middle East through the stories of Meleknaz, a Yazidi Syrian refugee, and Hussein, a young man from the Turkish city of Mardin near the Syrian border. Passionate about helping others, Hussein begins visiting a refugee camp to tend to the poor and sick streaming into Turkey by the thousands, fleeing ISIS.
There, he falls in love with Meleknaz - whom his disapproving family will call ''the devil'' who seduced him - and their relationship sets further tragedy in motion.
