The Lost Harmony

About this book

Between the breaking of the shadow and the mending of the soul: the tale of Rabaa in search of harmony. Have you ever felt your heart became a graveyard for people still walking the earth? In the corners of a simple rural village, where houses intertwine and destinies knot, Rabaa is born to find herself facing a world recognizing nothing but strength. Between a father bound by fears, a mother trying to marry off her daughters fleeing the specter of need, and a sister moaning under a bitter marriage, Rabaa pursues her path carrying her dream of study as a lone shield against the storm. This book is no mere story of poverty or traditions, but an extremely intimate human journey into the labyrinths of the human psyche. It narrates with the boldness of pain the "disappointments" coming from the closest people, and documents those moments when reality slaps us with cruelty for our dreams to fall to the ground. The work's tone progresses from the darkness of "the jathoom" and the suffocating nightmares, to the light of "talking with the moon" and seeking serenity in the expanse of verses and remembrance. In "The Lost Harmony," you will accompany Rabaa as she.
