مرسال الغرام

by Fawwaz Haddad, فواز حداد

تقتحم هذه الرواية عالماً من المباهج والرعب. المساخر والعهر، يبدأ بالأصوات والغناء والغرام والسياسة، ولا ينتهي بالثأر والحقد والشر. عالم اجترأ أبطاله على أقدار عمياء، داخل سيناريو يلعب فيه التمثيل والزمن خدعاتهما المتبادلة

507 pages, Paperback

Fawwaz Haddad (Arabic: فواز حدّاد) (born 1947) is a Syrian novelist. He was born in Damascus and studied law at Damascus University. He held several jobs before taking up writing full-time. Haddad published his first novel Mosaic, Damascus '39 in 1991. Since then he has written several more, including A Fleeting Scene, The Unfaithful Translator, A Solo Performance on Piano and God's Soldiers.

لكن الفصول التي تحتوي على إيديولوجيا أو تنظير مزعجة ومملة
