Searching for a wife:
Hello Al-Saa.. I would like to introduce myself to you.. I am Hamid bin Ali, (I know what you say and yes) and there is no need to tell you my last name (I know it is important).. I am now thirty years old and turning thirty-one, graduated from the American University and specialized in sciences. Politics and I also studied information technology.. You say where politics is about information technology.. But I come to love both specializations?.. Two specializations.. Not good, but I have the opportunity to work in both specializations.. I am a self-made person and I do not have youthful affairs or useless evening parties.. I pray my obligatory prayers, praise be to God.. I fast voluntarily on a day, may God help me.. and I like to read the Book of God on a daily basis after the dawn prayer.. I am the second child in the family, and next to me are my three sisters, Noura, Hamda, and Salama.. I was looking for a wife according to my personal specifications, and I told my mother, of course. And the search journey began (my mother's Google was working)... Let me tell you the stories I encountered during this journey..
Are you ready? (Oh God, we put our trust in God..)
And those days:

Ever since the Parisian girl Marie-Laure lost her sight, she has been living her own world, either between the pages of the books her father brings her, or in the corridors of the National Museum of Natural History where he works, enchanted by the wonders of the museum and the imaginative stories she hears about its holdings, especially the mysterious jewel: the Sea of Flames. She spends her days with her father with her usual routine, until the war begins, forcing them to run away carrying a dangerous secret.
On the other side of the war, in an orphanage in a small German town, a German teenager spends his days with his little sister, fascinated by the magic of radio and its ability to transmit news and stories from distant lands. Werner pursues his obsession to become an expert in installing and repairing radios, until the war requires him to join the engineering forces in the German army.
Through their story, Anthony Dorr tells in his charming novel about the good that we may see despite the ugliness of war, and about what war does to dreamers.
