Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Part Odyssey of the Persian Gulf and part 1001 Nights in Europe, this debut novel is drawn from the authorâs experiences as a political prisoner and years as a refugee. Our hero Rasul Hamid describes the eight different ways that he fled his home in Iraq and the eight different ways he has failed to find himself a new way home.From Iraq via Northern Africa through Europe and back again, Abbas Khider deftly blends the tragic with the comic, and the grotesque with the ordinary, in order to tell the story of suffering the real and brutal dangers of life as a refugeeâ"and to remember the haunting faces of those who did not survive the journey. This is a stunning piece of storytelling, a novel of unusual scope that brings to life the endless cycle of illegal entry and deportation that defines life for a vulnerable population living on the margins of legitimate society. Translated by Donal McLaughlin, The Village Indian provides what every good translation should: a literary looking glass between two cultures, between two places, between East and West. 286 5.0,"unit":"INCHES"},{"value":0.8,"unit":"INCHES"},{"value":8.0,"unit":"I NCHES"}].

A Slap in the Face (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Seagull Books London Ltd, Greenford, 2022
ISBN 10: 1803090006 ISBN 13: 9781803090009
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Now in paperback, the touching, timely story of an Iraqi refugee in Germany. In our era of mass migration, much of it driven by war and its aftermath, A Slap in the Face could not be more timely. It tells the story of Karim, an Iraqi refugee living in Germany whose right to asylum has been revoked in the wake of Saddam Husseins defeat. But Hussein wasnt the only reason Karim left, and as Abbas Khider unfolds his story, we learn both the secret struggles he faced in his homeland and the battles with prejudice, distrust, poverty, and bureaucracy he has to endure in his attempts to make a new life in Germany. As he erupts in frustration at his caseworker and finally forces her to listen to his story, we get an account of a contemporary life upended by politics and violence, told with warmth and humor that, while surprising us, does nothing to lessen the outrages Karim describes. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
