About the poetic version..
This collection is the first poetry publication by the writer and journalist Dareen Shabir, in which she poetically dealt with the relationship between a woman and a man, with all its emotions and contradictions, and played beautiful love symphonies, interspersed with sad and angry pieces that confronted treachery, betrayal, and endless absurdity.
Between one piece and another, the features of the homeland that the poet embraced with all love appear, and wept over the wounds he suffered in silence, and sent him bouquets of flowers that never die.
She also embraced a homeland that opened its wings to her and provided her with inexhaustible creative energy, so literature was a haven... and poetry was a companion in travel and travel...
This poetic publication is distinguished by its remarkable touch with reality, in which Dareen Shabir sends humanitarian and social messages that express a reality that she lived and that was deeply engraved in her conscience... to serve as a rich journey into the worlds of love, homeland, society, and humanity.
The characters of this novel are searching for a different life. Some of them leave their work in the cotton factory and become sex workers in the hot springs resort, while one of them enters prison of his own accord in search of calm. A third goes to her hometown, discovering strange caves and tunnels, while a fourth chooses a refuge in A rural province, where Chinese herbs are used in traditional medicine.
These characters are intertwined in multiple emotional and physical relationships, while each of them seems like a mirror of the other, as the story of each of them begins where the previous one left off, in a fluid temporal structure.
