Description

Watan Ghurbati هبة هوساوي

My Western Homeland, The homeland of my estrangedness, a novel in the Arabic language by Saudi novelist Heba Hawsawi.

The work uses the occurance of migration and within that shows a different type of alienation, that is the self-estrangement – the internal exile; so the ‘lack of belonging’ is both external and internal.

A girl ho migrated from Syria, her homeland, to Russia following the war – where another farewell awaits.
