“The book is a written capacity, and interwoven stories, thoughts, experiences, dreams, and tribulations on daily basis.”
NO MAJOR SPOILERS
I had to read Age of Arsonist by Sudanese writer Hakim Ali Elhaj couple of times trying to connect the description with the poetry/prose, and it was worth trying, because it was very contemporary kind of work, to focus on every little and forgotten detail and to keep the main idea plain to be seen differently from different angles and layers aside from the artist explanation and understanding to his very private world confessing his singularity yet his nothingness along with what “we” call idea of something.
“Age of Arsonist is the second part of Hakim Ali Elhaj literary project “The Other” The book is a written capacity, and interwoven stories, thoughts, experiences, dreams, and tribulations on daily basis, as it is a contemporary and expanded projection of the writer’s view on the concept of the constant and the variable as abstract feelings and elements that shape our lives by our natural understanding and perception of beauty and pain.”
