Over my time reading this book, I’ve really enjoyed learning more about the historical contexts of the Intifada and the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, as we follow Kan’an’s clandestine life in hiding.

So far, the narrative of how the main character Kan’an adapts to his life isolated from his community is interesting and reflective of Rafeedie’s own life inside the IOF prisons. In a way, he’s imprisoned by his disciplined loyalty to his political party, in a way I hope doesn’t hurt him later in the story
