In 1981 Messina took the pseudonym Gamla Ghli, fearing the uproar this novel would cause, and leaving it to her friend, Leonardo Sciascia, to introduce Ghli to the Italian reading public. Annie Messina brings both her Sicilian heritage and her years of living in Egypt to bear on this orientalizing fiction.
A review of The Myrtle and the Rose in Le Monde places Messina alongside Marguerite Yourcenar, Mary Renault and Mari Mori, women who wove novels about the passions of men.
