DescriptionThe unique selling point applying to all Insight Text Guides is the fact that Insight is the only publisher in Australia that takes the time and has the in-house expertise to source the most authoritative and best qualified writers for each text whether it be a novel, play, non-fiction, film or poetry. In the Country of Men is the debut novel from Libyan author Hisham Matar. The book follows the plight of Suleiman, a nine-year-old boy living in Tripoli in Libya, stuck between a father whose clandestine anti-Gaddafi activities bring about searches, stalkings and telephone eavesdroppings by Gaddafi's state police, and a vulnerable young mother who resorts to various drugs to bury her anxiety and anger. |
