al-Khāʼifūn : riwāyah
A novel within a novel that discusses collective trauma and a loss of self. Through an unreliable narrator and the pages of a troubled manuscript, we see the lines between fiction and reality blur. The Frightened Ones poses the questions: what happens when we invent the ones around us? To what ends do we attempt to reconcile the past? What does fear truly mean? Hazy and tense, this novel delivers a creeping sense of uncertainty and dread.
