Lanterns

About this book

Lanterns takes readers through the contradictions of contemporary life from the combined perspective of critic, philosopher, and literary writer. In the second volume of a larger series, Ramez Mohieddin Ali considers the conflict between good and evil, light and darkness, justice and oppression, insisting that hope can survive even when power appears to defeat truth. Its varied sections include occasional pieces, flashes of hope, patriotic reflections, linguistic dialogues, and meditations on thought, all joined by a call to recover human dignity, love, peace, and moral clarity.
