By day he combs through manuscripts at a government office, looking for anything that would make a book unfit to publish--allusions to queerness, unapproved religions, any mention of life before the Revolution. By night the characters of literary classics crowd his dreams, and pilfered novels pile up in the house he shares with his wife and daughter. As the siren song of forbidden reading continues to beckon, he descends into a netherworld of resistance fighters, undercover booksellers, and outlaw librarians trying to save their history and culture."--Amazon. 500 $a First published by Takween Publishing House (Kuwait) and ASPArabic (Beirut) 2019. 650 0 $a Libraries $x Censorship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Challenged books $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Intellectual freedom $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Books and reading $v Fiction. 650 6 $a Bibliothèques $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $x Censure $0 (CaQQLa)201-0003580 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Livres contestés $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Liberté de pensée $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Livres et lecture $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Satire. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0003483 650 6 $a Dystopies. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0017662 650 7 $a dystopias. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aat300265314 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Satirical literature. $2 lcgft $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Abdelrahman, Ranya, $e translator. 700 1 $a Hussain, Sawad, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240611031457.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CD8294C227B811EF9FBFAF4235ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
