In her collection “The Lover of Nothing,” which is a renewed edition of her collection “My Heart is Half a Shining Moon,” Latifa Al-Hajj travels the reader once again to the places she visited in Turkey, the country that fascinated her from the first visit and in which she experienced different feelings. She writes to us from the air about a close meeting and an awaited dream, and in front of a running waterfall, she describes the joy of nature around her, and the joy that overwhelms her in its depths.
She describes sleep escaping from her eyes in the evening, and the sun yawning on the bed of the sky in the morning, about love and the moon, near which a blue butterfly resided, and in her easy, delicate language, she describes to us her longing, longing, and waiting for love and the beloved.
From the group's texts:
My heart is a bright half-moon / Poetry writes itself in my heart / Dervishes are not looking for relaxation / Your last selfie / Take me back to the child / To you I will fly / What joy / Greetings from the waterfall / Dark dreams / Far away as a star / Everything is beautiful, everything is happy / The soft criminal He sings in Yalova
Its intellectual value. Russell was committed throughout his life to working to change the world in which he lived, and to addressing the public in a clear, rational manner. This is one of the intellectual virtues of philosophy: explaining, clarifying, simplifying, and opening the way for everyone to participate in the process of changing the world. The articles revolve around three axes: First, freedom: Throughout his life, Russell defended freedom of expression in the face of extreme religious and nationalist beliefs. His battle was to defend freedom of expression regardless of the oppressive force. This basic principle was one of the focuses of his thinking about politics and ethics. Secondly, religion: Russell criticized the Bolsheviks’ suppression of believers, and he also criticized the religious people’s suppression of atheists. His position on religion stems from a principled commitment to freedom of expression and faith. Third, rationalism and philosophy: Russell defended rationalism throughout his life, and refused to believe in any issue or opinion that was not supported by evidence in a clear, rational manner. On the other hand, mainly following Hume, Russell holds that reason has limits, and that the rationalist position also requires that we accept that our understanding of the world is limited by the limits of reason
Alone on Baraway Island, Ingrid lives after everyone has left, roaming the ruins, repairing what can be repaired, and catching fish and bodies that wash up on the island's shores. The young woman struggles to hide a big secret that could put her in danger, as the country witnesses the final months of World War II.
In this novel, Roy Jacobsen completes the story of Barawe Island, which began with "The Invisibles", with his delicate narration, natural images, and brief sentences that hide the truest and hottest feelings behind them.
“White Sea” is a novel about new beginnings that make their way from the ashes of a devastating war, about friendships and love, the faces of those passing by and the dead, and about people who remain where they are in the face of war, bidding farewell to the departed and receiving those returning, and monitoring the passing of days and the succession of seasons.
On the night that her husband and children prepare to travel, symptoms of a psychological disorder begin to appear on Mead, a photographer and newspaper archive official. A disorder that makes her see all faces as one face, the face of a bearded Greek god, and little by little, as the disorder worsens, details of the present and past events that led her to the extremely complex social maze she faces are revealed. In a narrative shrouded in mystery, the writer combines imagination with heritage, myth, fantasy, and history, to create from all of this a tight narrative text that discusses major existential and philosophical questions: What is the role of the other versus the ego? What if the hell was me? What if the world existed within the being of only one individual and everything else was an illusion?
