In the literature of friendship - Abdul Rahman Munif and Marwan Bashi

These letters were not originally written with the intention of publishing, as is the case with some of our famous literary correspondences. It was decided to publish them after the death of Abd al-Rahman at the commendable initiative of Suad Qawadri Munif and Marwan. I have no doubt that Abd al-Rahman would have agreed if he had been asked. Start messaging. To friendship, these letters constitute rare testimonies about the process of literary and artistic production and the relationship between them. The two friends remain silent and the correspondence is interrupted, while for months during the American invasion of Iraq, Abd al-Rahman breaks the silence explaining the reason: sadness and frustration. Marwan takes strength from the words of Saadallah Wannous, "We have been judged with hope." Closing scene: Marwan in his new anchorage waiting for the light to disperse the stubborn clouds of Germany: “What is important is the light” he says... Spring 2011.. the light came to us... Muhammad Bou Azizi carried out Nazem Hikmat's will: "If I don't burn / And if you don't burn You/And if we don’t all burn, how can the darkness become a light?”... A vision: Abd al-Rahman concluded his book on the Bahi Muhammad, citing this apocalyptic text of his friend, our mutual friend: “The flood will come, and everything will become possible, and the word impossible will be removed from the dictionary, a new Noah.” Overthrowing the prevailing dull dependence, a man and a woman who are motivated by the desire for love, procreation and work, they build the new world according to their tastes, and they fill the earth with justice after people filled it with injustice... Where are you, O great flood?
