The endings

His novels addressed the political and social reality of the Arab homeland in various forms, methods, styles, and approaches, differing in their ease, difficulty, directness, complexity, and even in their length. The book "The Endings" by Abdul Rahman Munif was published by Dar Al-Tanweer as part of distinguished Arabic novels, including Munif's complete works. About the book "The Endings" The world of endings, events move along lines where facts and symbols are parallel. On its factual level, it takes you back to the experience of the people of Al-Taybah, their belonging to roots, and their constant amazement at love and death. On its symbolic level, it takes you back to the discovery of man, wherever he is, his belonging to these mysterious forces in the universe that make love and death the most intense and fertile elements in all of nature. And "The Endings" are arranged as deep melodies for the paradise that remained present in the minds of the village. The novelist, by choosing Al-Taybah, this beautiful name for his village, is a symbolic choice, because every village is Taybah for its people… Taybah combines the meaning of good taste, air, and temperament, with the meaning of permanence… So, Taybah is also the living, thriving life. They said about the novel "The Endings" "The novel 'The Endings,' which I see as a quintessential desert novel, a Bedouin testimony who knows the desert, seasons, fertility, rain, drought, dryness, animals, plants, and birds, who smells the scent of clouds and recognizes the signs of storms. He lives with the people of his village — which is always the same village located on the edge of the desert — embodying its cultural patterns and purest values." Ali Al-Ra’i Quotes from the book "The Endings" A word spoken out of time or place kills more than a bullet. Why does a person possess this amount of foolishness? Why does he travel long distances for something that is not worth it?
