Kokora's luck

Kokora's luck by Lama Omar Jummum ... In her novel "Kokora's Luck," novelist Lama Omar Jummum takes the event of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as an alternative or parallel world in the fictional universe, but it does not directly reflect reality. Instead, she shapes it according to a dialectical vision of good and evil, crafted with a touch of creative art and the realistic reference to the event. The incident (narrated as a novel) is wrapped with other elements that increase its value and heighten our curiosity to learn more about it, doing so through a hidden link presented as an embellishment on a plate of words after cooking it in her way, and decorating it with sakura flowers. She cast on her novel's hero "Yuta" the luck of his city Kokora, which was saved from the atomic bomb by the weather, gently pulling him from his real world into his stories. She sent him on an unknown exploration journey from which he would not return until he passes through a beautiful spiritual and intellectual elevation stage. So, will Yuta's luck be like his city Kokora's luck? Kokora, the city fortunate in the Hiroshima and Nagasaki events, is his city. Here, Yuta searches for the essence of life among books and their stories, leaving his hopes between the doors of gods and a call with drinking Zamzam water. Between the past and the present, we move between... Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Mecca and Prophet Ibrahim, the whale and Prophet Yunus, America and its nuclear experiments. Stories are told... so we listen, enjoy, and learn. Author: Lama Omar Jummum Number of pages: 63 Dar Al-Arab for Science Publishers
