Until We Meet

About this book

Letters of survival.. when love is freedom's last stronghold. Have you ever tried to feel your whole life hanging by a thin thread of ink? In 1905, while the world drowned in the din of cannons and the smell of blood, there was another story being written in silence under dim candlelight. "Until We Meet" is no mere historical novel, but a deeply intimate human journey into the human soul's depths when walls besiege it. The tale begins with a stifled scream and a forced farewell moment, where "Elian" is dragged into captivity's abysses, leaving behind "Melda" facing alone a city that lost its features. Between a narrow cell accommodating nothing but an exhausted body, and an old farm where a woman hides from soldiers' shadows, a new language is born; the language of letters crossing borders and barbed wire. In this work, Eman Karam takes us beyond political events, to touch the trembling hand writing farewell words, and to hear the heartbeat racing with every step of a soldier approaching the door. It is the story of "the secret gate" everyone searches for; that small breach in despair's wall through which light passes. Does love alone suffice to mend shattered souls? And can a torn, dusty paper bring a human back from death's edge? In a measured literary style blending melancholy and inspiration, the novel invites you to ask yourself: what will remain of you if everything is lost? You will discover with the heroes that resistance is not always with weapons, but sometimes with the ability to dream, and holding on to a sincere promise: until we meet.
