The deaf seeker

What is war without the shouts of protesters, the roar of warplanes, and the screams of detainees in torture chambers? And how do beings and actions appear without their voices? And what is the need for a doorbell? And what is the sound of cooked food in a pot? And how can a deaf child-young man understand a silent world, a soundless world like this? These are some questions posed by the book "The Deaf Seeker," which describes the image of the world after removing its audio file, and recounts the diaries of a father who raised his deaf son alone. Riber Youssef, relying on diverse narrative methods, sheds light on the complex aspects of the fatherhood-sonship duality, including complicated feelings such as love, hatred, fear, and the desire to break free from the burden of this connection between the two, or to defend it and strengthen it. It is a book about a father who voluntarily abandons the voices of the world if they do not reach his son's ears, and about a son who re-discovers himself to bury his deafness and fear forever.
