The tropisms of wandering

Charidou 's of Manazel Jabbour Douaihy

Dar an-Nahar

What would have happened had he not Nizam pushed the garden gate of Bou Chahine? Not much probably. It would surely have had the same miserable fate faced by Muslim children born in one of the populous districts of Tripoli. But by making him push the door, Jabbour Douaihy forces his hero through the mirror and thus propels into a "wonderland" where all is love and abundance, where his life will never be what ' it should have been.

Throughout his life and the novel that tells Nizam will continue to cross mirrors, always different, which will be as many crossings into worlds where normally it would not had access. Thus he will have to change your family, identity and religion by the back-and-fro between "home" where it's never the same and never totally another. Jabbour Douaihy tells us about the wanderings of its hero without intervening, or just when you need him to create the conditions of his wandering and his mark in the course.

Car "Charidou'l Manazel" is a novel of wandering, but without a wandering quest and hopeless. When changes of address or identity, as Nizam is driven by a dark force and unconscious drives him to act in response to an external cause on which he has not taken. His sentiments rarely expressed, are fleeting, sometimes intense, but not within a specific or constructive psychology. If he raises in a Muslim family, the author adds, however, a singularity that will play a role in his life and facilitate its adoption in different places of his wandering. Nizam did not go unnoticed. Her blue eyes and wavy blond hair are turning heads with admiration or envy, especially those women who do not hesitate to sign each of his appearances. So when push the door of Bou Chahine to retrieve a lost ball, those same traits will inevitably "crack" the old Christian couple in labor, who sees in him a windfall.

Nizam and landed in a conquered land and discovers a new adoptive family already prepared to welcome him and to spend all his whims, but which turn slowly and the price of many precautions in a small Christian docile and willing. As for natural parents, one busy evading police and one to follow her unfaithful husband, they were happy to have a burden for their household and less jolting. Throughout her childhood and adolescence, yet Nizam continue to shuttle between his two homes as if they were part of a natural continuum in which there is neither smooth nor violence. Thus, as Nizam will be both circumcised and baptized without drama and without brilliant stroke. Thus armed, he will finally answer the call of Beirut and its charms foils and inaccessible.

Nizam was eager to reach Beirut, but not Nizam Rastignac and we will not hear him shouting "Between us, Beirut. You do not conquer the capital, when one is unable to conquer oneself. Wanted it elsewhere and he dreamed of anything but to continue his wanderings? Just as he was tossed between his two homes Tripoli and Haour, it will be between her apartment in Ras Beirut, a shabby hotel in the downtown and the studio of a painter whom he will love fetish. Again, Douaihy intervenes to give her the little push needed to facilitate its integration in an environment where it has nothing to do. The reader suddenly discovers her boundless generosity and propensity to spend which will attract a motley of animals "activists" idlers who will soon turn his apartment into a English apartment which he has neither control nor control .

Douaihy never tries to insinuate himself into the psychology of his heroes. At no time did he let his thoughts express or spill. He prefers to let it languish in its inanity, as if impelled him to devise his life not only as a last resort, especially when he saw the country fall apart under his feet before falling into the tragedy.

Charidou'l Manazel But, is not as much a tragic romance, a sense of irony through it from side to side. Jabbour Douaihy expressed in a simple and eloquent Arabic, which do not yield to the ease of spoken language. He did not need his comic situation is quite sufficient and it is still fly. The book is full of a thousand stories and relive the sixties today and yesterday's leftist whole sections of their youth. Their mannerisms, their rituals and their illusions, their thirst for life and extravagance, Beirut La Dolce Vita married to the idealism of junk. Everything is returned with joy, precision and poetry, as an endless inventory. A real treat!

Nizam continue to wander from their homes, inside his home and in his head until he lost all desire, resistance and hope to give meaning to his existence ...

Charidou'l Manazel is a great novel. It plunges with gusto and we do not leave without a hint of sadness. The style is gorgeous, endearing characters and constant suspense. Jabbour Douaihy has just passed his masterpiece.
