A love relationship develops between Abdullah Ibn Maryum Al-Dalalah and Wasmiya, daughter of lineage, in the small city surrounded by the sea. They live their dream because of social differences, in the shadow of fear and the tenderness of the sea, which Wasmiya imagined would protect her from the eyes of the lions. Her absence lasts a long time, and Abdullah remains lost in his dream, his eyes hugging the sea, waiting for his beloved to come out.
A novel filled with the smell of the sea, the only source of livelihood, and narrow alleys and distant travels.
