When horror, injustice, dying, sadness and melancholy come together in one novel. A novel by Mustafa Khalifa, which was banned from publication in the Arab world and published in French instead of Arabic. Its events take place in the eighties of the last century, in the midst of the war between the Syrian regime and the Muslim Brotherhood, when “Mustafa Khalifa” decided to return to his country, Syria, from France, because he claimed that his country needed him.
He left behind all his memories and his beautiful reality, and when he arrived at the Syrian airport and tried to enter his country, he was arrested under the pretext that he was affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood even though he was a Christian. Then he was imprisoned for more than 13 years, to be subjected to various types of torture and abuse.
The novel is very painful and full of dark events, with voices of terror, pain and mourning, stressful and heartbreaking. By the way! The events of Al-Qawqa’a’s novel are real, and if they were not, then they are less than true in explaining the torture that the Syrian youth faced.
