Mai El-Maghraby builds a world on the verge of being forgotten, as the events of her novel unfold in the marginalized Gyte El-Anab area of Alexandria. She paints a highly specific portrait of her protagonist, "Nasira," and her distorted thoughts, whether about herself, her illnesses, her sexual identity, or the insane desire that governs the actions of the men around her. She exposes the "women's medicine" that deprives any unmarried woman of the right to treatment, diagnosis, or even simply to ask questions. It is a racist, violent world, built on mythical tales, forgotten songs, forbidden questions, and the constant fear of stigma.
