Book Description | "Don't see with your ears, don't hear with your eyes, and don't believe everything you're told. Some words are images. If you contemplate them, you'll see details you didn't realize at first glance, shaky spectres in the background, and small things that indicate their time and place. If you turn them over, your eyes might see words written by their author that might change your view of them. We always see the truth as incomplete, but we feel it as complete, so trust only your heart." Three short novels by Ashraf Al-Ashmawy with a narrative structure that interweaves realism with the absurd through an exciting story and a charming scene, revealing the mockery hidden in the distance between the dreams of his novels' heroes and their reality that is stranger than fiction. |
