"Characters whose tussles leap off the page so compellingly shows a master at work." — Peter Salmon, author of An Event, Perhaps: A Biography of Jacques Derrida

Here we have a hall of mirrors in which the writer mines his soul for images that reflect the story. But in interrogating the self, what Omar Sabbagh produces is an engaging array of unique perspectives on all our souls.
