Days of Escape

Product details

A country whose history has never witnessed any violence, a people enjoying security, expatriates living in stability... Suddenly, overnight, Iraq invades Kuwait, as if a hurricane or earthquake swept away all manifestations of security and destroyed stability. Kuwait then became – with communications cut off from the outside world – a large prison, with no way out except by fleeing across a desert that carries within it the unknown, full of all that is frightening.
Through the diaries of the coup that befell the lives of Egyptian, Kuwaiti, and Arab families, the novel, rich with events taking place under the yoke of occupation in Kuwait, moves between Arab and foreign capitals, following the leaders of countries in a frantic race against time, and then in the escape adventures of a unique group of people seeking to save their lives amidst a tense and exciting atmosphere.
