Mostafa Khalifa’s “The Shell”
RAYA is proud to represent Mostafa Khalifa’s “The shell”, a narrative and literary non fiction story of a man who was unjustly, and without a trial, jailed for 12 years in Syria.
This book (2008) was widely acclaimed, and considered the best example of Arabic prison literature. A gripping read.
New to the list! Spring 2014
