Through deceptive writing that goes beyond the ordinary, this novel plays the game of illusion. The writer gives the hero of the novel his real name, and surrounds him with literary figures known by name, and through it he addresses the cultural milieu and the intellectual class, which suggests that he is presenting a biography.
It is noteworthy that this is happening at a pivotal time in modern history, as the events are accompanied by a popular movement demanding change, just as the world suddenly realizes that it is threatened by the Corona epidemic, which has cast its weight on life, and under its shadow, daily lives have become charged and different.
There is another direction through which we view a review of the hero's experiences with writing and reading, women and love, disappointment and disappointment. It is a shocking vision that only bold writing can take us to.
