A world without maps, authored by: Abdul Rahman Munif, Jabra Ibrahim Jabra

The questions and answers intertwine in this novel, making it sometimes difficult to say which are the questions and which are the answers. And in following the ongoing dialectic in its chapters, doubt remains a subject of curiosity, excitement, and continuous questioning. Why does Amuria remain a world without maps? And Alaa Al-Din Naguib, does he have a way to escape its labyrinths in his passionate, turbulent, contradictory confessions about the death of Nagwa Al-Amri, the astonishing woman who combines the wildness of the Sualima and their lust, with the calculations of profit and loss that she grew up with in her family and society? And where does this fit into his story with his past, with his brothers Safaa and Adham, with his uncle Hossam Al-Ra'd, with his aunt Nasrat, and his ancestral villagers and tribal figures from his other story, his story with the impossible and madness, lurking in Nagwa Al-Amri, in himself, in their era, in all of Amuria? Two great novelists, Jabra Ibrahim Jabra and Abdul Rahman Munif, whose talents combined in a remarkable way to create a unique creative work, to evoke an atmosphere filled with confusion and anger, desire and ecstasy, in the creation of this city, Amuria, which the reader has never visited before, and after visiting it, its illusions will dwell within him for a long time.
