This book contains a translation of a number of television interviews with some of the most famous Latin American writers and poets, some of whom left our world leaving a great literary legacy, and some of whom are still with us today, enriching our lives with their cultural production.
The topics of these interviews varied between shedding light on the details of these writers’ personal lives and their biography and intellectual biography, to their critical opinions regarding their literary experiences and the experiences of some other writers.
Some of these interviews were conducted by media professionals and journalists on television programs, or were meetings that brought together writers with each other, such as Márquez’s interview with Neruda.
We hope that this book will be a window to discover new aspects about writers who enriched our culture and made our world wider.
From the days of my life...the path to happiness: My book is very simple, in which I tell you about some of the situations I went through that played a major role in building my personality and who I am today. These situations come in a way that brings happiness to me and to those around me. I tried to narrate some situations and some stories and put them in a simple form containing some of them articles from some writers or sayings, and I implanted in them my simple advice. It was also my idea to directly translate this book, in cooperation with my daughter Al-Reem, to be in both Arabic and English

Product Details :
It is common knowledge in Russia that all decisions are made by one person: Vladimir Putin. This is partly true. In fact, all decisions are made by Putin. But Putin is not one person. It is a great collective mind. Dozens, even hundreds of people guess every day what decisions Putin should make. Vladimir Putin himself is guessing all the time about what decisions he must make in order to be popular, to be understood and to gain the support of “the great collective Vladimir Putin.” This is a very important myth: that everything in Russia is related to Putin, that without him everything would change and that the current image of Putin - the terrible Russian Tsar - was shaped for him, often without his participation: by courtiers, foreign partners, and journalists. This collective Vladimir Putin has been praising his memories all these years, in order to prove to himself that he is right. In order to convince himself that his actions were logical, that he had a plan and a strategy, and that he had not committed mistakes, but rather he was forced to act in this way, because he was struggling with enemies and fighting a harsh and continuous war. That's why my book is a history of an imagined war. A war that must not end, otherwise we would be forced to admit that it never existed. We have all invented a Putin character that we like. Most likely, it will not be the last character.
Big data spaces:
In fact, talking about “big data” is no longer a common thing. This term is not a fad, a fad, or a shiny new headline in the crowd of this century. Rather, it is:
- An undoubted fact on which the lines and paths of the future will be built
- A phenomenon that is not at risk of extinction whenever data emerges from us and to us.
- Think proactively against the times and the strongest is the one who has the greatest readiness to contain the momentum of big data with professionalism and tight management.
After twenty years of work, Salem ends his service in the police cavalry and returns to his home and family in Deir al-Qarn, bringing with him the only companion that has remained with him all these years: his horse. Family members have different feelings towards this guest, who will now become part of the family. The chains of storytelling revolve between the five children and the mother, and as they revolve, they weave stories and build worlds. In this novel, Mamdouh Azzam writes, in a new and different style from his previous novels, a story about a simple family that lives its tranquility and fear, its surrender and rejection, its peace and its conflicts, to stir within us endless questions and contemplations, while freedom, in its broad meaning, writes the final chapter.
To those who are exhausted by pain and fatigue, to those whose affairs are difficult and whose wishes are delayed or distressed, to those who are weighed down by worry and grief, or by thinking about the future, and to those who are kept awake by fear and terrified by anxiety in the face of life’s circumstances, here are these words, phrases, and fleeting thoughts, with reflection on some of the verses. Pauses with supplication and its effect, and reflections that contain a dose of patience, good faith, optimism in God, and lack of despair, frustration, and pessimism in this life.
