Land of Darkness 3 parts | Abdulrahman Munif

The most prominent feature of this novel is that it is the last work written by Abdul Rahman Munif (1997-1999) and some considered it an attempt to return to the sources of childhood, especially since he dedicated this work to his mother Noura Al-Iraqi, who fed him the love of Iraq, as he said. He used the Baghdad dialect in dialogue with all its daily details and infused the novel with the Iraqi perspective on things, whether at the level of the ruler or the general public. Munif tried to say that the history of Iraq applies the rule that history repeats itself. One critic said that the event in the novel "Land of Blackness" is Iraq alone.
