Description
A strong sense of nationalism pervades this entire work, in which Ghada al-Samman writes about the underbelly of Beirut and Lebanon, its tormented and toiling people struggling for bread and dignity. It is her most beautiful and profound incomplete work, for in it she has captured the suffering of this great, beautiful, and sorrowful nation, a nation whose potential is squandered. Since her early works in the 1960s, Ghada has consistently expanded the boundaries of her craft and embraced the wounds of the Arab people with responsible language.
