يوم الشمس-Yawm El Chamess

About The Book

هل تنبّأت أمّي بموتها يوم رسمتْ اسمي بالأحمر؟ هل أرادت أن تموت لينتهي خوفها من الموت؟ هل أرادت أن تركض إلى ما ينتظرها بدل أن تنتظره، أن تعرف الحقيقة: إلى أين سنذهب وإلى أين ذهب هؤلاء الذين نحبّهم؟ ليس أنّني لم أفكّر في الموت، موتي. لكن بالرغم من وحدتي وعلاقتي المتحجّرة بأقرب الناس إليّ، اعتبرت الرغبة في الموت تخلّيًا عن حقٍّ أساسيّ في الوجود، حقٌّ يمكنني التمسّك به بعدما سُلب منّي رغمًا عنّي، ورغمًا عن كلّ شيء، حقّي في أن أكون ابنة، وأن تكون لي أمٌّ مثل الآخرينThis book is a split-time novel. The first time period depicts the Lebanese Civil War where the protagonist tries to remember her story with her mother who left her to marry someone other than her father and settled in Japan before returning back to Beirut. The second time period portrays the present where the protagonist experiences romantic relationships with people involved in this war she curses. In-between the mother is murdered leaving behind a painting for her daughter who became an artist just like her. Consequently and through her search for the lost painting the daughter is also searching for her mother's killer after spending her childhood searching for her mother's affection when the latter was alive. The novel's strength lies in the plot as the perpetrator remains unknown until the last pages.
