A village that dialogues with the world

Author's name: Abdullah Al-Zamai

From his village of Fayd in the ancient Hail region, journalist and translator Abdullah Al-Zamai builds cultural bridges between the Arabic language and the languages ​​of the world, engaging in dialogue with a group of the greatest contemporary novelists and short stories about the secrets of the appeal of their writings, to present to Arab readers the methods of narration in other languages ​​and their approaches to dealing with human topics according to the culture of each writer.

I was, and still am, amazed by Abdullah Al-Zamai's comprehensive grasp of his guest's experience and his knowledge of every detail of his literary output. He isn't a journalist who leaves question marks idly at the end of the conversation. Rather, he is a challenger who surrounds the answers with his questions, sifting them through other questions. This book is intended not only for those who want to understand the art of writing a novel, but also for those who want to understand the art of reading it.
