Quotes
[edit]- I was prompted to write this novel a few years after the Arab Spring began, when a volcano of dreams erupted then failed, as the utopia became dystopia. Evil religious forces joined the fight and the political struggle degenerated into military conflict and war.
- The novel revolves around the Yemeni revolution, against a background of politics and history that provides the constant for most Arab Spring scenarios. This explosion being suddenly confronted with the conflicts that plague our Arab societies was an inspirational moment and the starting point for my novel.
