The Night's Progeny

About this book

Between the stillness of night hiding humanity's sins in its folds, and the roaring of winds refusing to erase injustice's trace, the tale of 'The Night's Progeny' springs forth. In the village of 'Tel Al-Ghofran,' where silence is not always a sign of contentment but may be a mask for cruelty's face, stands 'Kanaan' burdened by the consequences of a night when blood froze in veins, while the spark of rebellion ignites in his daughter 'Jazeel's' heart. She is the female who grew among seven men, acquiring the rock's hardness and the water's purity, refusing to be a mere witness to the masters' vanity and the injustice of traditions. The novel takes us on a mysterious journey beginning from the retribution square, where devils' laughter rises to cut the sky's silence, and summoning an ancient curse embodied in 'Elana's stars,' that galaxy appearing only to remind the living of the screams of those who departed wronged. Can a weary woman's scream break the shackles of a society seeing in 'gentleness toward the frail' a slogan it never applies? And can 'Jazeel' escape her father's legacy and the village's curse pursuing everyone.
