Sour Grapes

Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of the Syrian neighborhood of al-Qaweyq, this collection features fifty-nine satirical short stories that explore the lives of characters living on the fringes of society. Through a lens of humor and defiance, the author highlights the ironies of life under an oppressive regime, particularly focusing on the bold women inspired by Arab mythology. The younger generation grapples with inherited cynicism, while the title serves as a poignant metaphor for potential change stifled by unpreparedness.
