The author really needs to clarify the relationship between Kyle and the women of his family. Apparently Faiza nursed both he and his sister, but when they finally made love, it was stressed that this is the womb his sister was born from not himself. Sometimes she is his mother, sometimes his mother in law. Was she a surrogate? A step mother? Did his father just happen to have children with two different Iraqi women? Because it has been stated that both he and Fatima share ethnic origins.
