Book Like distant bells

Product description

Just as a tree rests from its burden when it is picked, Ratib Shabou's memory rested on paper and revived a time whose distant ringing bells still echo like a joyful hymn in the spaces of the soul and mind. This novel takes us back to the writer's rural childhood and the events, people, situations, and emotions imprinted on his memory, with its raw material, that we are reassured by, interact with, and live within a solid narrative framework that combines existentialism and determinism as an expression of a social and familial reality, and direct criticism of an era characterized by intellectual oppression. A dazzling, vibrant description that places us in the heart of the event, where nature breathes, captures the feelings of those it embraces, nurtures and is nurtured by, and refuses to be separated from it, until modernity robs the oven-baked bread of its flavor, machines distort the black cheek of the earth, and politics gouges out the throats of freedom. “That black abyss widened and swallowed the village road, then swallowed our house and our trees. And when the black stone workers left their workplaces to become fighters with rifles this time, not hammers, chasing other men, those poor siesta mattresses turned into real graves, as if the stones were taking revenge for themselves.”
