Items related to I Die Every Day. Ten Libyan Tales
I Die Every Day features ten short stories written by Ali Al-Ja'aki (The Button. The Departure. The Martyr. Nostalgia for the Fire. The Flood. The King of the Wind. The Phoenix. The Bubble. The Mirage). Born in Libya in 1952, Al-Ja'aki worked as a journalist from 1980 to 1984 and has had his work published in local newspapers. Inspired and influenced by the well-known Libyan novelist, Ibrahim Al-Koni, Al-Ja'aki writes using a compact style of short carefully worked sentences. This bilingual reader is ideal for those who would like to read some contemporary Arabic literature albeit in translation, intermediate to advanced students of Arabic who are looking to improve their reading skills and widen their literary vocabulary and native Arabic readers who are keen to improve their English. The collection features stories in both English and Arabic, prefaced by a brief author biography. It is the hope that the suggested translations will be of interest both for native Arabic speakers wishing to improve their reading and translation skills as well as for native English speakers looking to develop their familiarity with literary Arabic.
