For Zayed, Mariam

Eiman Rashid Al Shamsi

In my novel, I wanted to create a life for Mariam, to change her destiny, to push death away so it would take someone else and she would remain. This is my first novelistic experience, and success comes from God.

"For Zayed, Mariam" is a novel about an Emirati girl, an Emirati family, and Zayed in an Emirati home, about solidarity and love in Emirati society, and the view of girls in light of the development that Zayed, may God have mercy on him, established in this country. Mariam, who lives in the Emirate of Sharjah, goes through many situations and events that any girl experiences. The dream was to graduate from UAE University, until Salem, Mariam's fiancé, plays a role in changing events, leading her to marry Mubarak, who dies before Zayed is born, and the dream of graduating from university evaporates. Will she be able to return to university while Zayed is under her care? Many events full of love, determination, and discovery of truths.
