Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Taleb Alrefai turns a spotlight on Kuwaits pearl-fishing history in this enthralling fictional re-telling of that fateful day, 19 February 1979, when the countrys famous dhow shipmaster Captain Al-Najdi is lost at sea in a treacherous storm. In between fishing for seabream with two friends,… the retired mariner looks back on how the sea has been calling him since childhood, on the punishing work of pearl-divers, and how he became a captain at 14. As he recalls his voyages around the Arabian Peninsula, some with renowned Australian sailor Alan Villiers, he meditates on how the sea was abandoned when pearl-fishing ended with the discovery of synthetic pearls and oil. In a kind of revenge, howling winds and enormous black waves suddenly erupt and quickly engulf the small fishing boat. Taleb Alrefai spotlights Kuwaits pearl-fishing history in this enthralling fictional re-telling of the final treacherous journey at sea of famous Kuwaiti dhow shipmaster Captain Al-Najdi, with flashbacks to the awesome pull of the sea on Al-Najdi since childhood and his voyages around the Arabian Peninsula with Australian sailor Alan Villiers. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Impoverished Egyptian teacher Helmy is deperate to find a better life for himself, his wife and little boy, seeing no future at home in Cairo. He dreams of working in oil-rich Kuwait and its boom in construction being the answer, just like many thousands before him. He manages to borrow the huge cost…of a visa and is at last on his way to Kuwait City. He has no idea of the nightmare, instead of the dream, that awaits him - the relentless summer sun with temperatures of 56ºC and more, the choking dust and sweat, having to do construction work instead of teaching. And always, no money, and no answers from the many managers Helmy comes up against. Instead of achieving his dream, he falls into trap after trap. The author is himself a character in the novel, an engineer with the construction company who is writing a story about the humiliating and degrading experiences of the migrant foreign workers arriving in Kuwait to make their fortunes.

His wife, frustrated by the deteriorating situation of their marriage,…fills the void in her existence with unbridled consumption. But the luxury in which their family bathes cannot hide the echoes of a terrible absence, that of Ahmad, the youngest son, who has turned his back on his family to join a jihadist organization in Syria. When Yaqoub discovers an attractionas irremediable as it is unexpectedfor one of his employees, a young woman of Iranian origin, he almost loses his footing. Caught between worry for the fate of his son and the exaltation that this budding relationship gives him, he suddenly learns that Ahmad is being held hostage by a rival terrorist group who is demanding a colossal ransom.This captivating and suspenseful novela true immersion in the daily life of an ultra-rich Kuwaiti familyquestions desire, painful family dynamics, and the preoccupations with jihadism.
