The sunken childhood home

Product details

The Sunken Childhood Home by Antoine Waters... Every day, Mahmoud Al-Mashi dives into the artificial lake that swallowed his village, searching for his lost memories, while civil war rages around him and the dam threatens to collapse. Between the nicknames "the mad old man" and "the wise old man," he carries the weight of his past losses: a deceased wife, sons who went to fight, and the story of a man who defied the Ba'ath Party and chose writing and nonviolence. In "The Sunken Childhood Home," the individual's memory intertwines with the tragedies of his homeland, where pain meets dream, and the past meets the present.
