With his usual sarcasm and strong language, Ghazi Al-Qusaibi enters the gates of imagination to paint a satirical picture of our bitter reality. He takes us on a fictional journey to the remote mythical island of "Medusa" with the elite of the Arabistan nation spread here and there and immersed in their nonsense and trifles to the bone. And Arabistan here is every Arab country and does not mean any Arab country. With these "seven", Al-Gosaibi continues his mission of inciting to get up from the nap, and leads us to wonder with ourselves to what extent reality can produce personalities like Al-Gosaibi's personalities, who are not really a figment of the imagination, but rather they are us with all our impatience and superficiality. People like Anwar Mukhtarji The astronomer Basrawi Alwan is really present among us, as they include the poet, philosopher, journalist, doctor, astronomer and politician, and these are the heroes of the reality that we are suffering under the weight of its torments. All of them fell in the test, the test of manhood, and their funny and crying ending was drawn for them at the end of the novel.
